Thanks in advance,

PictureBox on top of MainMenu

  • Corey Furman

    No, this is not possible. Menus are special beasts and are not to be trifled with. .NETCF does not support "owner-draw" menus. Alex's suggestion of creating your own custom control and showing it when you would normally expect a main menu is the way to go to achieve what you are looking for.

  • Lars Roith

    That is not an option.

    Isn't it possible to show controls on top of a menu (somehow changing the z-order or something like that )

    Thnx.

    I guess i do not like 'special beasts'.

    It's not clear what you want to achieve. Remove the MainMenu from the form and use whatever control you want.
