Just wondering, is it possible to make the 3 slide panel with one button ?

What I have tried:

below this is my code, where i need to click 1 button to show 1 panel, so.. if i have 3 panel.. then i need 3 button. The thing that i need is, i just want 1 button to create panel slider (3 panel)

private void button_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var point = new Point(97,76);
    this.panel2.Location = point;

    this.panel2.Location = new Point(
     this.panel2.Location.X,
     this.panel2.Location.Y);


}

private void button_2(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

    var point2 = new Point(97,76);
    this.panel3.Location = point2;

    this.panel3.Location = new Point(
     this.panel3.Location.X,
     this.panel3.Location.Y);

}

private void button_3(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

    //DEfault
    var point2 = new Point(307, 75);
    this.panel2.Location = point2;

    this.panel2.Location = new Point(
     this.panel2.Location.X,
     this.panel2.Location.Y);


    var point = new Point(97,414);
    this.panel3.Location = point;

    this.panel3.Location = new Point(
     this.panel3.Location.X,
     this.panel3.Location.Y);


}

Use a state system to manage what happens when the button is pressed.

I don't understand from your code what it is that you are doing.

add those codes in a single button click event.

There are a lot of ways you could do this. Here's one:

Handle all Panel positioning in the Click EventHandler of one Button:

private void YourForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Panels = new List<Panel> {panel1, panel2, panel3};
    }

    private List<Panel> Panels;

    private int currentPanelIndex = 0;
    private Panel currentPanel;

    private void PanelChangeButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        currentPanelIndex =
            (currentPanelIndex == 2)
                ? 0
                : ++currentPanelIndex;

        currentPanel = Panels[currentPanelIndex];

        currentPanel.BringToFront();

        switch (currentPanel.Name)
        {
            case "panel1":
                // your positioning code goes here
                break;

            case "panel2":
                break;

            case "panel3":
                break;
        }
    }
}

We keep track of the current Panel, and, with each click on the 'PanelChangeButton, we set the index to point to the next Panel in the series. If we are at the last Panel in the series, we reset the index to point to the first Panel.

In the 'switch/case statements you can write your code to do whatever based on the (new) current panel.

fyi: this code is redundant:

var point = new Point(97,76);
this.panel2.Location = point;

this.panel2.Location = new Point(
 this.panel2.Location.X,
 this.panel2.Location.Y);

It can be replaced with this:

this.panel2.Location = new Point(97,76);
