I want to display a control on the context menu using ToolStripControlHost. But, margins, such as an icon area, occur in following codes. Even if I specify Padding, Margin, etc. as 0, a margin remains. Aren't there any good ideas?

Hi,

 

Sorry, I test on my side. Unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce. Items still don’t show CheckMargin and ImageMargn.

Could you please provide more details or make a demo project for us to test? Please upload your demo project to some server and offer us the URL.  Skydrive (http://skydrive.live.com/ ) may be a good option. You can sign up 25GB free space only with your Windows Live Passport.

I use the following code;

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            ContextMenuStrip cms = new ContextMenuStrip();

            cms.ShowCheckMargin = false;

            cms.ShowImageMargin = false;

            cms.AutoSize = false;

            TextBox textbox1 = new TextBox();

            textbox1.Text = "11111111111111111111";

 

            //ExtraControl esc = new ExtraControl();

            cms.Items.Add(new ToolStripControlHost(textbox1));

            cms.ClientSize = new Size(500,500);

            cms.Padding = new Padding(0);

            cms.Margin = new Padding(0);

            cms.Items.Add("aaaaaaaaaaaaa", Image.FromFile(@"C:\Users\##\Desktop\test.jpg"));

            cms.Show(this.Location);

        }

 

Best regards,

Ling Wang

Thank you for your reply.

A sample project is here. Because my development environment is Windows Vista, Visual Style may have influenced.

Don't turn off AutoSize or set the ClientSize, that will crash it by itself if you click the scroll arrows you get.  Are you talking about the gap on the right?  I repro that, not a gap on the left.
