| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| X | When negative, the left edge of the control is placed that many pixels from the right edge. For example, -500 places the left edge of the control 500 pixels from the right edge of the panel. This is equivalent to selecting Right Anchor in Form Designer. |
| Y | When negative, the top edge of the control is placed that many pixels from the bottom edge. For example, -1000 places the top edge of the control 1000 pixels from the bottom edge of the panel. This is equivalent to selecting Bottom Anchor in Form Designer. |
| Width | When negative, the right edge of the control is placed that many pixels from the right edge. For example, -10 places the right edge of the control 10 pixels from the right edge of the panel. This is equivalent to selecting Autosize Width in Form Designer. |
| Height | When negative, the bottom edge of the control is placed that many pixels from the bottom edge. For example, -20 places the bottom edge of the control 20 pixels from the bottom edge of the panel. This is equivalent to selecting Autosize Height in Form Designer. |
Color
Don't use the Form Designer to set the control's text color if you plan to put it into a Panel control. It won't stick. There are technical reasons for this, but the easiest work around is to pass the desired color into this method.
