Hello,
You could use something like that:
public MdiMainForm() {
//
// Required for Windows Form Designer support
//
InitializeComponent();
//
// TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call
//
foreach(Control ctrl in Controls) {
if(ctrl is MdiClient) {
ctrl.Paint += new
PaintEventHandler(OnPaintMdiChild);
ctrl.BackColor = SystemColors.Desktop;
break;
}
}
}
protected virtual void OnPaintMdiChild(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
// paint something special
}
Regards,
Michael Rednikin
