I have two FlowLayoutPanel
controls on the same form with some controls on both of them. What O want is that if FlowLayoutPanel1
controls are clicked, I want to change label1.Text
and if FlowLayoutPanel2
controls are clicked, I want to change label2.Text
.
Here is my code to add controls in both FlowLayoutPanel
.
public void Load_DFlavours(FlowLayoutPanel FLP)
{
try
{
FLP.Controls.Clear();
using (SQLiteConnection con = new SQLiteConnection(AppSettings.ConnectionString()))
{
con.Open();
using (SQLiteDataAdapter sda = new SQLiteDataAdapter("Select distinct(Flavour_Name) From Flavours Where Category_Name = 'Flavours' Order By Flavour_Name", con))
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
sda.Fill(dt);
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
{
RadioButton rb2 = new RadioButton();
rb2.AutoSize = true;
rb2.Font = new Font("Segoe UI Semilight", 10F);
rb2.Margin = new Padding(2);
rb2.Text = dr["Flavour_Name"].ToString();
rb2.UseVisualStyleBackColor = true;
rb2.Tag = dr["Flavour_Name"].ToString();
FLP.Controls.Add(rb2);
rb2.CheckedChanged += Rb2_CheckedChanged;
}
}
con.Close();
}
}
catch (SQLiteException se)
{
MessageBox.Show(se.Message);
}
}
Clickevent Code:
private void Rb2_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
RadioButton rb2 = (RadioButton)sender;
string flavour = rb2.Tag.ToString();
//I want to do something here if flowlayoutPanel 1 control is
clicked change the label1.Text and if flowlayoutPanel 2 control is
clicked change the label2.text
//I have tried this
if(rb2.Checked)
{
label1.text = flavour;
}
}
How to know which FlowLayoutPanel
Controls are clicked?
I can do this by creating multiple methods but I want to do this work on the same method.
For more clarification, see this image:

Don't have a computer to check right now, but I assume this should work
if (rb2.Checked)
{
if (rb2.Parent.Name == "flowlayoutPanel1")
{
label1.Text = flavour;
}
else if (rb2.Parent.Name == "flowlayoutPanel2")
{
label2.Text= flavour;
}
}

You can use the ControlAdded
and ControlRemoved
events of the FlowLayoutPanel to subscribe/unsubscribe to an event which changes the text of the label based on the clicked control:
private void flowLayoutPanel1_ControlAdded(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
{
e.Control.Click += flowLayoutPanel1_ControlClicked;
}
private void flowLayoutPanel1_ControlRemoved(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
{
e.Control.Click -= flowLayoutPanel1_ControlClicked;
}
private void flowLayoutPanel1_ControlClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var control = (Control)sender;
label1.Text = control.Text;
}
private void flowLayoutPanel2_ControlAdded(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
{
e.Control.Click += flowLayoutPanel2_ControlClicked;
}
private void flowLayoutPanel2_ControlRemoved(object sender, ControlEventArgs e)
{
e.Control.Click -= flowLayoutPanel2_ControlClicked;
}
private void flowLayoutPanel2_ControlClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var control = (Control)sender;
label2.Text = control.Text;
}
And of course, you need to subscribe to these events first, either by selecting the event from the properties window, or by calling the following:
flowLayoutPanel1.ControlAdded += flowLayoutPanel1_ControlAdded;
flowLayoutPanel1.ControlRemoved += flowLayoutPanel1_ControlRemoved;
flowLayoutPanel2.ControlAdded += flowLayoutPanel2_ControlAdded;
flowLayoutPanel2.ControlRemoved += flowLayoutPanel2_ControlRemoved;

You can add more information to Tag
property of the RadioButton
. For example, you can:
rb2.Tag = $"{dr["Flavour_Name"]}|{FLP.Name}";
This way, you can use string.Split()
to take the Flavour_name
and FlowLayoutPanel
name. But since the Tag
property accept object, you can create new class to hold the information.
Using this approach, you can use:
RadioButton rb2 = (RadioButton)sender;
string[] splits = rb2.Tag.ToString().Split('|');
string flavour = splits[0];
string flowPanelName = splits[1];
