The Control class is the base class for all controls used in a Windows Forms application. Because this class is not typically used to create an instance of the class, this constructor is typically not called directly but is instead called by a derived class.
This version of the Control constructor sets the initial Text property value to the text parameter value. The constructor also adds the control to the parent control's Control::ControlCollection. The initial Size and Location of the control are determined by the left, top, width and height parameter values.

To maintain better performance, do not set the size of a control in its constructor. The preferred method is to override the DefaultSize property. |
