Hello everybody again.
I am using powerpacks 3 with vb 2005.
I have a shapecontainer and i create shapes on runtime.
I want to display scrollbars when a shape moves outside the visible area.
Thank you in advance for your help

Please show the code you are using to create the shapes.

There should be a Setting in the Properties Window called ScrollBars. Set that to Horizontal, Vertical, or Both.

Hello i again.
First i declare a class that inherits rectangle shape

Public Class decNode Inherits Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.RectangleShape 

I have s shape container

		Friend WithEvents myCanvas As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.ShapeContainer
		myCanvas.Parent = Me
		myCanvas.AutoScroll = True
		myCanvas.AutoSize = True
		myCanvas.SetAutoScrollMargin(3, 3)

And i create new shapes and assign them to canvas

		Dim myRect As New decNode
		myRect.Parent = myCanvas

I have tried everything to display or make scrollbars visible.
if i move the shape to a position outside the visible area nothing happens.
So is there any suggestion ?
Thanks

You can't. It is a light weight control. Can you not use a label or picturebox with the border set to single and no content?
