Moving Form without title bar
One way is to implement IMessageFilter
like this.
public class MyForm : Form, IMessageFilter
{
public const int WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN = 0xA1;
public const int HT_CAPTION = 0x2;
public const int WM_LBUTTONDOWN = 0x0201;
[DllImportAttribute("user32.dll")]
public static extern int SendMessage(IntPtr hWnd, int Msg, int wParam, int lParam);
[DllImportAttribute("user32.dll")]
public static extern bool ReleaseCapture();
private HashSet<Control> controlsToMove = new HashSet<Control>();
public MyForm()
{
Application.AddMessageFilter(this);
controlsToMove.Add(this);
controlsToMove.Add(this.myLabel);//Add whatever controls here you want to move the form when it is clicked and dragged
}
public bool PreFilterMessage(ref Message m)
{
if (m.Msg == WM_LBUTTONDOWN &&
controlsToMove.Contains(Control.FromHandle(m.HWnd)))
{
ReleaseCapture();
SendMessage(this.Handle, WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HT_CAPTION, 0);
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
This is basically what you are looking to do:
Make a borderless form movable?
You might be able to add the same code to the mouse down event of other controls on your form to accomplish the same thing.
