Hi all, I have added VScrollbar to my app to take the place of the skinny one that shows up in my FlowLayoutPanel - touch scren app. Working on setting the properties correctly, I am geting close, but not there yet...

'in my valueChanged event
vsFLP.Maximum = flp1.Controls.Count * 60 ' 60 being the size of each control in the flp
flp1.VerticalScroll.Value = vsFLP.Value

I have been playing with the .LargeChange too, but so far not working. So any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Asscotte, the problem I am faced with is understanding the setup, adding controls changes the maximum and I believe the LargeChange number too, or at least I think so. The maximum is the pixels of the container regardless of the visible size - right? So flp.controls.count * the size of the control added. What is the diff b/t the scroll event and the value changed?

Well I am not sure, but it seems there might be a bug with FLPs and scrolling. I have my custom scrolling(while dragging) via a timer, the trouble is when I scroll up it will jump down a short ways, either by using the scrollbutton or by using my timers. So how do I keep it at the top?

Ok, flowLayoutPanels have issues when scrolling if the item you are dragging is located in an area that is out of the visible area after you are done with the dragDrop - it wants to go back to where it was located, so in the mouseDown event just change the focus to the panel itself(flowLayoutPanel1.Select) and it will scroll where ever you want! yeah!
Still working on the correct values for the custom vscrollbar(largeChange and maximum when controls are added).

Well I have been doing the trial/read/search and finally got it. This is my first such problem with scrolling while dragging with a flowlayoutpanel. As far as the scrollbar I got it too. Thanks for help, there was useful info in there.
