How to Create a Modern Flat UI Design Dashboard in C# (Part 2)

[@nannapatchanel21]

Great Job! Your VDO help me a lot !

[@christiandebellefeuille3245]

Great job, but some improvement could be made like having a single method "loadPanel" to load whatever you want to load :D Here's what i've done. First, you define every form you want to load, within the class, instead of defining them at the "Click" method level. This way, each form keep their state (UNKNOWN asked for that 2 months ago). frmDashboard frmDashboardWindow = new frmDashboard() { Dock = DockStyle.Fill, TopLevel = false, TopMost = true }; frmSettings frmSettingsWindow = new frmSettings() { Dock = DockStyle.Fill, TopLevel = false, TopMost = true }; Then, define this method: private void loadPanel(string iTitle, System.Windows.Forms.Form iForm) { lblTitle.Text = iTitle; this.pnlFormLoader.Controls.Clear(); this.pnlFormLoader.Controls.Add(iForm); iForm.Show(); } Then in every Button Click method, just call it like this: loadPanel("Dashboard", frmDashboardWindow) or loadPanel("Settings", frmSettingsWindow)

[@christiandebellefeuille3245]

well, could do even better. Just define a dictionnary of Forms, and have the title to be the key. private Dictionary screens = new Dictionary(); Populate the dictionary like this: screens.Add("Dashboard", new frmDashboard() { Dock = DockStyle.Fill, TopLevel = false, TopMost = true }); screens.Add("Settings", new frmSettings() { Dock = DockStyle.Fill, TopLevel = false, TopMost = true }); Add the first line to the loadPanel, and remove it's 2nd parameter: private void loadPanel(string iTitle) { System.Windows.Forms.Form iForm = screens[iTitle]; lblTitle.Text = iTitle; this.pnlFormLoader.Controls.Clear(); this.pnlFormLoader.Controls.Add(iForm); iForm.Show(); } then call it like this: loadPanel("Dashboard")

very helpful and useful, thank you for uploading great content!

[@MrMemo0325]

How do you make the form able to be dragged?

[@alexwang7557]

On your dashboard form, what control(s) or NuGet package do you recommend that can actually plot some meaningful graphs instead of just a picture control having a static image?

[@Romlingen]

Great GUI design, but teaching people this much copy/paste is not good. Create common functions instead.

[@ethanchua714]

i keep having an ArgumentException when running the line "this.PnlFormLoader.Controls.Add..." any ideas how to troubleshoot this ?

[@UNKNOWN-yu5xj]

When you move to another form, the form is initialized. I want to keep it in a state.

[@christiandebellefeuille3245]

See my commetn if you haven't found the solution yet... but it was definitely an easy thing to find

When you click button there's no BackColor Can you explain me why? Btw. your videos are great :D

[@CodeCraks]

Because earler in the part 1 video there are no multiple forms were open so the back color changes when it was active. In this it forces on the multiple form thats why the back color dosent work
