The ScrollBars enumeration represents the visibility and position of the scroll bars in a Panel control. The ScrollBars property uses these enumeration values to specify the type of scroll bars to display in a Panel control. The default value for the ScrollBars property is None, indicating that no scroll bars are shown.
If you specify Auto for the ScrollBars property, scroll bars are automatically shown when the size of the content in a Panel control exceeds the size of the Panel control. For example, if a Panel control contains a table, and the panel is not wide enough to display all the rows in the table, a vertical scroll bar is shown. If the size of the table exceeds the height and width of the panel, both vertical and horizontal scroll bars are shown.
The following code example demonstrates how to declaratively set the ScrollBars property to Auto. The panel contains a table, the entire contents of which exceed the size of the panel. This causes both vertical and horizontal scroll bars to be automatically displayed when the panel is rendered. The user can then scroll to view all the data in the table.
The following code example demonstrates the ScrollBars enumeration values. A ListBox control is populated with the ScrollBars enumeration values. The scroll bars displayed in the panel change, based on the value the user selects from the list box.
