No; this should work. If you're scrolling the canvas, you need to
adjust for that when you draw the rectangle.

Charles I tried that and no go, it still scrolls the canvas and now
the drawrect up and past the rectangle. Now I use the rectangle as
a backing of white to show of the canvas. I have only one canvas.
Should I have another canvas for the drawrect or what?

Hello all,
I found some examples of how to scroll a CANVAS using the SCROLL
control that is within just the Main WINDOW. It works great, but
I need to have other things in the Main Window too besides the
darn canvas.
Rectangle = Border for Canvas
Canvas = scrolling field with controls on it, static and the like.
Scrollbar = to scroll up and down to see all the controls
What happens is the Canvas over shoots the Rectangle and looks
like CRAP! I have StaticText fields in the canvas and when you
scroll past the top its like the Canvas is sliding over the
Rectangle mask, what I call it, and casts over the other
controls on top of the Rectangle. this method works great fore
pictures but I have NO pictures in this canvas, its just a tool
to use to scroll the controls is all.
Does any one know how to setup a canvas to be WITHIN the limits
of a Rectangle or whatever control to confine it to a specific
height and width?
I guess I am asking is how to keep the canvas UNDER the
rectangle object instead of showing OVER the rectangle object,
or how do I do this if not with a canvas?
Don't USE a Rectangle control. Instead, draw the BORDER in the
Canvas itself using Graphics.DrawRect in the Canvas.Paint event
handler.
