Height, Width, Left, Top, ClientHeight, ClientWidth, ClientLeft, ClientTop Properties, TabStrip, Image Control Example

The following example sets the dimensions of an Image to the size of a TabStrip's client area when the user clicks a CommandButton. This code sample uses the following properties: Height, Left, Top, Width, ClientHeight, ClientLeft, ClientTop, and ClientWidth.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Declarations portion of a form. Make sure that the form contains:

• A CommandButton named CommandButton1.
  
  
• A TabStrip named TabStrip1.
  
  
• An Image named Image1.

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    CommandButton1.Caption = "Size Image to Tab Area"
    CommandButton1.WordWrap = True
    CommandButton1.AutoSize = True
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Image1.ZOrder(fmFront)    
'Place Image in front of TabStrip

'ClientLeft and ClientTop are measured from the edge
'of the TabStrip, not from the edges of the form
'containing the TabStrip.
    Image1.Left = TabStrip1.Left + TabStrip1.ClientLeft
    Image1.Top = TabStrip1.Top + TabStrip1.ClientTop
    Image1.Width = TabStrip1.ClientWidth
    Image1.Height = TabStrip1.ClientHeight

End Sub
