How to: Use the Spring Property Interactively in a StatusStrip
You can use the xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel.Spring%2A property to position a xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel control in a xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip control. The xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel.Spring%2A property determines whether the xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel control automatically fills the available space on the xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip control.
Example
The following code example demonstrates how to use the xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel.Spring%2A property to position a xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel control in a xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip control. The xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem.Click event handler performs an exclusive-or (XOR) operation to switch the value of the xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel.Spring%2A property.
To use this code example, compile and run the application, and then click Middle (Spring) on the xref:System.Windows.Forms.StatusStrip control to switch the value of the xref:System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel.Spring%2A property.
