PixelLayout

The Pixel Layout provides a way to position your controls based on pixel co-ordinates.

Note: Using the pixel layout to position standard controls is highly discouraged, as each control may be different sizes based on the platform. It is highly recommended to use the TableLayout or DynamicLayout when using standard controls, as they will auto fit to the size of each control.

C#
using Eto.Forms;

public class MyForm : Form
{
    public MyForm()
    {
        var layout = new PixelLayout();

        var label = new Label { Text = "Hello!" };
        layout.Add(label, 10, 10);

        // during runtime you can move controls
        layout.Move(label, 10, 100);
        
        Content = layout;
    }
}

XAML
<PixelLayout>
  <Label PixelLayout.Location="10,10">Hello!</Label>
</PixelLayout>

F#
open Eto.Forms

type MyForm() as this =
    inherit Form()
    do
        let layout = new PixelLayout()

        let label = new Label(Text = "Hello!")
        layout.Add(label, 10, 10)

        // during runtime you can move controls
        layout.Move(label, 10, 100)

        this.Content <- layout

Python
import Eto.Forms as forms

class MyForm(forms.Form):
    def __init__(self):
        super(MyForm, self).__init__()
        layout = forms.PixelLayout()

        label = forms.Label()
        label.Text = "Hello!"
        layout.Add(label, 10, 10)

        # during runtime you can move controls
        layout.Move(label, 10, 100)

        self.Content = layout

In XAML, PixelLayout.Location sets where each control starts.
