In Form2:

{          
    Form1 f1 = new Form1();
    f1.showpanel();
}

In Form1:

public void showpanel()
{
    panel1.Visible = true;
}

2.i also make panel public and call directly from form2 also

In Form2:

private void panel1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)

     Form1 f1 = new Form1();

From form2 Before showing the form1 you need to make panel1 visible.

private void panel1_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {          
         Form1 f1 = new Form1();
         f1.panel1.Visible = true;
         f1.panel1.Show();
     }

In c# I want to show panel in form1 when i click a button in form 2
