Access to Windows.System.Forms.Control

[romanhoehne]

Hello,

I have a Problem:

In my MainWindows I can easy access the Control - it ist simply "this".

In my MainWindow I use a Class DrawingUtils an this class use other classes like Figure, witch should be draw:

 
class Figure
public void Draw (Control control)
{Rectangle destination = new Rectangle(0,0,96,96);
destination.Location=control.PointToScreen(new Point(360,360));
.
.
.
class DrawingUtils
private void CreateSurfaces(Control control)
{
_display = new Device(); 
_display.SetCooperativeLevel(control, CooperativeLevelFlags.Normal);

 

How can I access the Control from my Mainwindow in a Class? I do not want to use Parameters like "(Control control)".

Is there a way to access it from those classes?

Thank You a lot,

Roman

Usually, when I want to do something like this, I declare the forms in a Module. I don't instanciate them... just declare...

 

Module Forms
    
    Dim FormMain as System.Windows.Forms.Form

    'This will start the app with this form...
    Public Sub Main
         Application.Run(New FormMain)
    End Sub

End Module

'If you have a class in this project and want to access the objects on the FormMain you just have to call this:
'Lets assume you want to access a TextBox on thet Form called TextBox1...
MessageBox.Show(Forms.FormMain.TextBox1.Text)
