VS2012 Express Custom and User Control

[circuits2]

With your new project, set the size of the control to 782 x 262. Next, set the background color to black, or whatever color you like best. Then, drag a button onto the control and position it at location 2, 2. Set the button's size to 50 x 50. Each additional button's position will be the original button width/height plus two.

In my example, I have set the button's to FlatStyle.Flat with a backcolor of DimGrey, a bordercolor of Silver, and a ForeColor of White. I am also using Tahoma 12pt Bold as my font.

The bottom left and right corners are blank filler panels that I am using to complete the image of a keyboard.

Here are the sizes:

General Button: 50 x 50
Backspace: 102 x 50
Backslash: 76 x 50
Enter/Caps: 102 x 50
Shift: 128 x 50
Space: 362 x 50
Fillers: 206 x 50

Notice I am using the un-shifted values of each key for the button text, such as lower-case letters, numbers, etc. I don't have a need for the tab key, so I have omitted it in my project.
