Hi All,
 
I'm trying to add a ReportControl to an Item within a TaskPanel.
 
I'm using the SetHandle method and all works fine when the window opens.  You can expand and contract the group etc all fine, but as soon as you click on the ReportControl it moves to a location outside of the TaskPanel.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi Andy,

I know how to get the ReportControl into the TaskPanel without it moving back outside of the TaskPanel when clicked.

Add a PictureBox control and then place your ReportControl inside of this PictureBox. Next use the following code to attach this all to the TaskPanelGroup you wish.

Code:

    Dim Group As TaskPanelGroup
    Dim Item As TaskPanelGroupItem

    Set Group = TaskPanel.Groups.Add(1, "Group By")
    Group.Expanded = True

    Set Item = Group.Items.Add(1, "Test 1", xtpTaskItemTypeControl, 1)
    Set Item.Control = Picture1
    Item.SetSize 0, 0, True
    DoEvents

    ReportControl.Move 0, 0, Picture1.Width, Picture1.Height

My only issue now is to try and get the PictureBox to fit the TaskPanelGroupItem exactly! I have left the PictureBox border as black so you can see how this looks.

  

I have tried using Item.SetMargins which allows me to set the left & top position but I can't find how to get the height and width of the TaskPanelGroupItem. As you can see from above I have used Item.SetSize however this appears to autofit the control but with margins...

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I have since resolved this issue. I was using the SetSize and SetMargins incorrectly the first time I looked at this, after going away for a few minutes I realised how to resolve it... typical!!!

Code:

Private Sub CreateToolbox()
    Dim Group As TaskPanelGroup
    Dim Item As TaskPanelGroupItem

    Set Group = TaskPanel.Groups.Add(1, "Group By")
    Group.Expanded = True

    Set Item = Group.Items.Add(1, "Test 1", xtpTaskItemTypeControl, 1)
    Set Item.Control = Picture1
    Item.SetSize 0, 0, True            
    Item.SetMargins -8, -5, -8, -5  
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Resize()
    ' Resize the TaskPanel on Form Resize
    TaskPanel.Move TaskPanel.left, TaskPanel.top, TaskPanel.Width, Me.ScaleHeight - TaskPanel.top - 120

    ' Resize the rpcGroupBy ReportControl inside the PictureBox, the PictureBox gets resized automatically by the TaskPanel
    rpcGroupBy.Move 0, 0, picGroupBy.Width, picGroupBy.Height - 15
End Sub

Result:
