How to add padding between the TreeView control's contents and its edges

Question

I want to add padding between the TreeView control's contents and its edge in windows form application?

Answer 1

This is referred to as a "margin" ( padding is inside, margin is outside ).

TreeView.Margin property :

Gets or sets the space between controls.

However, if your TreeView is docked it will not respect this setting:

Setting the Margin property on a docked control has no effect on the distance of the control from the the edges of its container.

So you would have to place your TreeView in a Panel , dock the Panel and put the margin on the TreeView .
