Getting The Location Of A Control Relative To The Entire Screen?
C#WinformsControlsLocationC# Problem Overview
Let's say I have a Control and its location is relative to its parent. If its embedded many times and is the great great great grandchild of the main form, how can I determine what its location is on my entire screen, not just its location in the immediate parent? This is for the purpose of printing a particular Control via a screenshot (since for some controls the DrawToBitmap doesn't work properly).
