FormStartPosition.CenterParent does not work

Question

In the following code, only the second method works for me (.NET 4.0). FormStartPosition.CenterParent does not center the child form over its parent. Why?

Answer 1

just put the code in the constructor of your form.

    public FrmSample()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        // must be after the InitializeComponent()
        this.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterParent;
    }
