The control is moved to the front of the z-order. If the control is a child of another control, the child control is moved to the front of the z-order. BringToFront does not make a control a top-level control.
The following code example ensures that a Label is visible by calling its BringToFront method. This example requires that you have a Form with a Panel named panel1, and a Label named label1.
Private Sub MakeLabelVisible()
' If the panel contains label1, bring it
' to the front to make sure it is visible.
If panel1.Contains(label1) Then
label1.BringToFront()
End If
End Sub
private void MakeLabelVisible()
{
/* If the panel contains label1, bring it
* to the front to make sure it is visible. */
if(panel1.Contains(label1))
{
label1.BringToFront();
}
}
private:
void MakeLabelVisible()
{
/* If the panel contains label1, bring it
* to the front to make sure it is visible. */
if ( panel1->Contains( label1 ) )
{
label1->BringToFront();
}
}
private void MakeLabelVisible()
{
/* If the panel contains label1, bring it
to the front to make sure it is visible.
*/
if (panel1.Contains(label1)) {
label1.BringToFront();
}
} //MakeLabelVisible
