Mdi Forms with Controls and Child Forms

[savvaschr]

Hello,

I have an MDI Parent Form and when I add a control on it , lets say a
Button,
then when I open an MDI Child Form from the Parent Form, the Button is
Visible on that Form Child Form,Is actually in Front of it.
How can I prevent that , How can i send the Button back to the
Backround lets say and see only the Child Form?

Thanks in Advance

It's by design to show only MDI child forms in the MDI parent's client area.
Dock the button (set dock property) to any side to reduce the size available
for the child windows.
