    Question VB.net resizes forms and all controls based on selected language

    Greetings...

    I am trying to make my software interface Multilingual support. But I am facing a issue about sizing.

    as I design my form based on English language and place all control according to current size and location.

    So, for testing when I change a example text from English to Russian it took larger space than English and thus overlaps with another control.

    so, my question is it possible to change a language and form and all of its controls will be resized based on changed size automatically?

    thanks in advance

    best regards

    You need to adjust the anchoring of the controls. There is no real guidelines that I can give you other than to tweak the anchor or dock property of the controls until it fits for your situation. Another suggestion is to place some controls into some sort of panel that organizes the controls for you such as a FlowLayoutPanel or TableLayoutPanel.
