Bit difficult to describe.

A form with a panel (DOCK BOTTOM) and a TableLayoutPanel (DOCK FILL).
TableLayoutPanel has 2 rows, 1 column each with a user-written control.

Sizing the form in the development environment works fine.

If I start the application, create an instance of the form and show it, the Windowstate changes to maximized as set. Nevertheless, the panel is still at his position as set in the development environment.

I am working on this for quite a time and was not able to find a solution.

I have to add that this is only one out of about 100 forms in my project.
All the rest works as it should, this is the only form that makes trouble.
I have compared the property settings to other forms using the same controls, no difference.

If anybody could give me a hint it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

I tried to do exactly the same, and I can't duplicate your problem.
A form, with a panel, Dock bottom, and a TableLayoutPanal Dock fill and various ways to maximise teh form on startup - the panels appear as I expect. The TLP fills the screen, with a smaller panel overlaying in at the bottom.

So what I doing that your aren't, or you doing that I am not?
