VB.net FlowLayoutPanel - centering controls

My initial reaction is "no"

The whole point of the flow layout is to just start laying out controls from left to right until you're done.

What you may be able to do is resize the layout panel and position it such that it appears that you've achieved centering.

Of the head, it could be done, with Padding property. If controls are of  same size, then you know how many are located in one line. Free space on the right side is easy to calculate, and you need to divide it by 2 and set such value for Panel.Padding.Left property

However, if size of controls is not the same, then my first guess is that you would be needing to loop through all controls, watch for their Location.Y property, when its the same, it means controls are on the same line. When you come to the last control

Panel.Size.Width-LastControl.Location.x-LastControl.Size.Width=FreeSpaceOnTheRightSide

the rest should be as mentioned above

Maybe it  looks confusing, but I dont think there is another way. :)

I don't know why rwallacej hasn't responded, but I am positive that my solution works (have tested it and it works).
