如何正确对齐 StatusStrip 中的控件？

Question

I am trying to right align a control in a StatusStrip . How can I do that?

I don't see a property to set on ToolStripItem controls that specifies their physical alignment on the parent StatusStrip .

How do I get Messages drop down to be right aligned? http://i.friendfeed.com/ed90b205f64099687db30553daa79d075f280b90

Answer 1

Found it via MSDN forums almost immediately after posting :)

You can use a ToolStripLabel to pseudo right align controls by setting the Text property to string.Empty and setting the Spring property to true . This will cause it to fill all of the available space and push all the controls to the right of the ToolStripLabel over.

For me it took two simple steps:

1. Set MyRightIntendedToolStripItem.Alignment to Right
2. Set MyStatusStrip.LayoutStyle to HorizontalStackWithOverflow

Answer 3

As an added note this is due to the fact that in the Win32 API a cell is either fixed width or fills the remaining space -1

int statwidths[] = {100, -1};

SendMessage(hStatus, SB_SETPARTS, sizeof(statwidths)/sizeof(int), (LPARAM)statwidths);
SendMessage(hStatus, SB_SETTEXT, 0, (LPARAM)"Hi there :)");

If memory serves me correctly you can have only one fill cell (-1) per statusbar.

You could also add a third middle cell and give this the fill property to get a more concistent looking StatusBar. Consistent because Messages has an inset to its left right where you'd expect it. A bit like the mspaint shot found on the MSDN page for StatusBars

I like the creative appreach though :D

Answer 4

You can display the Button at the end of the StatusStrip by using the logic below.

1. Add a ToolstripLabel to the StatusStrip
2. Set text as string.Empty
3. Set Padding for the ToolstripLabel

For example:

this.toolStripStatusLabel1.Padding = new Padding((int)(this.Size.Width - 75), 0, 0, 0);

Answer 5

保留工具条标签，将 Spring 属性设置为 true 并在底部左对齐标签文本

Answer 6

I found that you can set the StatusStrip Layout to HorizontalStackWithOverflow. Then, for each control on the StatusStrip that you want on the right side, set the control Alignment to Right.

I like this better since you don't need any extra or dummy controls to align.

Answer 7

如果将状态条标签控件的 Spring 属性设置为 true，则该标签将占用 StatusStrip 中其他控件未使用的任何空间。

Answer 8

I find a general way to set a control's location in StatusStrip . You can display the Button at any position in the StatusStrip by using the steps below.

1. Add a ToolstripLabel to the StatusStrip

2. Set text as a suitable amount of space like

   toolStripStatusLabel1.Text = ＂ ＂;

3. If layout is not what you want, got to step 2 to change the amount of space in toolStripStatusLabel1.Text , else work has been done.

将 RightToLeft 工具条属性设置为 True。
