ok let me know what I want. I want to display form1 on multiple screens at a time
if I click on button screen 1 it should get display on screen 1 if i click screen2 then it should get display on screen 2
and screen size will change depend on customer . it might be like large tv screen
I am able to set a location of controls for all screen size the problem is as screen size change from small to large I want to increase font of controls to occupy blank space of screen
I have attached code if u want to see what I did

Hi Seema,

Try this code

        float previous_Width;
        float previous_Height;

        public Form2()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            panel1.BackColor = Color.Transparent;
            panel2.BackColor = Color.Transparent;

            previous_Width = this.Width;
            previous_Height = this.Height;
        }

        private void Form2_Resize(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            float xRatio = (float)this.Width / (float)previous_Width;
            float yRatio = (float)this.Height / (float)previous_Height;
            SetFontSize(this,xRatio, yRatio);
            previous_Width = this.Width;
            previous_Height = this.Height;
        }

        private void SetFontSize(Control c, float xRatio, float yRatio)
        {
            foreach (Control cc in c.Controls)
            {
                if (cc is TextBox || cc is Label)
                {
                    float size = cc.Font.Size;
                    Font fontFamily = cc.Font;
                    cc.Font = new Font(fontFamily.FontFamily, size * yRatio, fontFamily.Style);

                    cc.Location = new Point((int)(cc.Location.X * xRatio), (int)(cc.Location.Y * yRatio));
                    cc.Size = new Size((int)(cc.Size.Width * xRatio), (int)(cc.Size.Height * yRatio));
                }

                SetFontSize(cc, xRatio, yRatio);
            }
        }

Here I've resized the font-size and adjusted location of control when the Window is Resized.
