Change the location of an object programmatically
Location is a struct. If there aren't any convenience members, you'll need to reassign the entire Location:
this.balancePanel.Location = new Point(
this.optionsPanel.Location.X,
this.balancePanel.Location.Y);
Most structs are also immutable, but in the rare (and confusing) case that it is mutable, you can also copy-out, edit, copy-in;
var loc = this.balancePanel.Location;
loc.X = this.optionsPanel.Location.X;
this.balancePanel.Location = loc;
Although I don't recommend the above, since structs should ideally be immutable.
The Location
property has type Point
which is a struct.
Instead of trying to modify the existing Point
, try assigning a new Point
object:
this.balancePanel.Location = new Point(
this.optionsPanel.Location.X,
this.balancePanel.Location.Y
);
