Putting a Calendar in a customized vertical tab setting. C# - Winform

Question

Hello so I have a customized vertical tab using the drawitem. However I can't put something in the tab control strip. I want to put a calender there so that I can utilize the free space however the tab-control doesn't let me do that. Is there a possible way of doing that thing?

**I want it to look like this but in a vertical format so that I can utilize the empty space in photo 1

Answer 1

The simplest way is to not add it to the Tab Control. Just add the control to the form, but make sure it sits on top of the Tab Control:

Simple example:

MonthCalendar mc1 = new MonthCalendar();
this.Controls.Add(mc1);
mc1.Location = new Point(0, this.ClientSize.Height - mc1.Height);
mc1.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Left | AnchorStyles.Bottom;
mc1.BringToFront();

Answer 2

Make another control, that has your table control at the top and the calendar at the bottom, put that on your main form.
