I designed a design for my form and now I wonder how can I move a window? I do not want to be static this form.

What do you mean by moving a form? If someone drag it or just move by it self?
Have you tried to change the location of the form?

Normally you click and you move a window, as well as other software.

Normally you can move a form by drag the form and move the mouse to the place he want s to move the form. But if your form is border-less, then you can look at this tutorial.

I think the same as when you open a folder and you move the window left,right,up and down, I want my software has that option.

This is my first time I have designing my form, and i need a help.

You dont need to do that by yourself, when you create a form, it has those properties with it. Is yours not working?

i dont have those properties because i design my software by my own and i don't use vb.net standard design.

What design are you using? WPF or what?
And are you sure that you cant move by dragging it? Then you have to follow the tutorial to make your own moving capabilities like what we have in tutorial above

That's exactly what Smohd is talking about. Follow the tutorial. IF you are new to vb.net this isn't a simple task for beginners, if you ask me.

i'm not new, but this is my first time to work my own design.

[smohd]

SO you have FormBorderStyle: None and so your form has no border thus cant be moved?
Then what you have to do is to deal with mouse events on the form:
- When mouse down, get the current position of the form
- When mouse moves, start changing the position of the form according to the movement.
- And when mouse up, we are done now set the location as the forms location and stop responding to the mouse move.

That is all you have to do and has been explained in the tutorial,did you read it?

Rectangles can make this simpler.
