I've got a FlowLayoutPanel with properties:

• Dock = Fill (in a usercontrol)
• FlowDirection = TopDown
• WrapContents = false

I do it this way so that each item added to the panel gets added to the bottom.

The items that I add to this panel are usercontrols which themselves have FlowLayoutPanels on them, however they have the standard behaviour (LeftToRight, WrapContents = true). The problem that I'm having is that the interior usercontrol's FlowLayoutPanel isn't resizing to fill the outer control, but when I set autosizing to true on these controls, then the panel won't wrap its contents - which is a known problem apparently.

If it helps visualize what I'm trying to do, it looks like this:

    ______________________________
    | __________________________ | Outer box = exterior flowlayout 
    | |Text____________________| |    (TopDown, NoWrap)
    | | # # # # # # # # # # # #| |
    | | # # # #                | | Interior boxes = usercontrols with text and a 
    | |________________________| |   flowlayoutpanel on them 
    | __________________________ |    (LeftToRight, Wrap)
    | |Text____________________| |   
    | | # # # # # # # # # # # #| |   # = pictures
    | | # #                    | |
