Image of my form

I need to display all open MDI forms when I click the window button in the menu strip. It should drop down and give you an option to select the active one. This is probably some simple answer but I have looked in so many places.

  • just simply add new menuitem to the window menu item whenever you add new child form and remove it when you close that one. – Niranjan Singh Mar 28 '16 at 13:35
  • That can work but my lecturer showed a much easier way of doing it. I think it was a property that she set. Thanks for the reply – Hobbes Mar 28 '16 at 13:51
