The custom-sized area for a control.


In This Topic
GetPreferredSize Method (EditBase)
In This Topic
Retrieves the size of a rectangular area into which a control can fit.
Syntax
'Declaration
 

Public Overrides Function GetPreferredSize( _
   ByVal proposedSize As Size _
) As Size
 
'Usage
 

Dim instance As EditBase
Dim proposedSize As Size
Dim value As Size
 
value = instance.GetPreferredSize(proposedSize)

Parameters

proposedSize
The custom-sized area for a control.

Return Value

An ordered pair of type System.Drawing.Size objects that represent the width and height of a rectangle.
Remarks
The behavior of GetPreferredSize differs by control. The LayoutEngine might be unable to assign the returned size to the control. You can return a size larger than the constraints indicated in the proposedSize parameter, but proposedSize should decrease as the constraint decreases. For example, GetPreferredSize(new Size(100, 0)) should not be wider than GetPreferredSize(new Size(200, 0)). The exception is a proposedSize of 0 or Size.Empty, which is defined as unconstrained.
