Public Function GetPositionFromControl (control As Control) As TableLayoutPanelCellPosition

Parameters

control: Control

A control contained within a cell.

Returns

TableLayoutPanelCellPosition

A TableLayoutPanelCellPosition that represents the cell position.

Remarks

The GetPositionFromControl method returns the actual current position of control, even if its position is determined by the LayoutEngine. This method takes into account the entire TableLayoutPanel control state, including column or row spanning and when the LayoutEngine has placed a control with its Column and Row properties set to -1. This is equivalent to the situation in which GetColumn and GetRow return -1.
