Totally unclear. Please define what you call 'resolution based windows application development', because this does not make any sense on its own.

Which means the user controls should fit(occupy) based on screen resolution(size).

If you mean an application that maintains proportional sizes, positions, of user-interface elements indepedent of screen-resolution, you should look at WPF.

In any case, clarify your question.

Filling the screen with one Form, or one UserControl is easy in either WinForms, or WPF, or ASP.NET. You need to clarify whether you are talking about re-scaling the container (Form, UserControl, etc.) proportionally to arbitrary sizes as well as moving, or re-sizing.

Because WPF uses vector-based rendering of all UI elements, including fonts, you are in a different "universe" there in terms of easily re-scaling so proportions are retained.

In WinForms, you are in a very different graphic reality; many UI elements (like the default MS supplied Controls) will not scale proportionally.

Please tag your original post with whether this WinForms, WPF, or a Webbrowser based App. If you're not sure about that yet, that's okay.

Tell us your goal: what your application requires, and does.
