Solution 1

Adding controls to your user control not too sure, I don't think its possible.
To dynamically show controls from your user control, have properties to show / hide the control and set the visibility at instance level.

Solution 2

Its possible you can try with tablelayout panel at design time .In runtime can try tableLayoutPanel1.SetRow() this function to add coontrol dynamically.But in design time definety can.If you have an option to use any third party control can use Component one sizer control.
