How can I make panel control that's width is larger than 32767 pixel also with scrollbar????
I've tried to move some control's(picturebox) location (39840,1) but when I debuged, I can see this picturebox's position was 32767... -_-
so I think, that was caused by panel control's maximum width...

plz help me...

It is an 32-bit integer, so you can't set it larger than 2^32-1. Why you would want such a large control is another matter, it sounds like your UI needs a redesign.

2^32-1 = 4294967295.
39840 is certainly smaller than that!

Ooops, quite correct - I autorecognised 32767 = max value of 16-bit signed integer so something related to that is coming into play.
It's still puzzling me why anyone would want a panel that wide, even with a monitor which has a horizontal resolution of 4000px it is still more than 8 monitors wide.
