Change the Textbox height?

Question

How do I change the height of a textbox ?

Neither of the below work:

this.TextBox1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(173, 100);
         


        

Answer 1

You can put it inside a panel that has the same back color with your desired height. This way has this advantage that the text box can center horizontally, which is not provided by other solutions.

You can make it even more natural by using the following methods

    private void textBox1_Enter(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        panelTextBox.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle;
    }

    private void textBox1_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        panelTextBox.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.None;
    }
