MainMenu Causes Designtime/Runtime Window Size Differences

Hi Mitchell,

Thank you posting!
The problems started when I added that MainMenu
control. It almost looks as if it is resizing to make room
for a status bar at the bottom - but there isn't one!.

I have performed some tests on my side, it seems to be a phantom problem.
Sometimes it would happen at the first time right after you the Maimenu
control to a VS2003 Winform. But after you do some edit to the mainmenu
control, the problem would disappear and all work as normal.

Does this problem disappear on your side after you edit that Winform (and
its mainmenu control)?

Thanks!

I wish it did, but it's there to stay. I've even deleted the MainMenu
and re-created it under a different name and see the same thing happening..

Thanks!!
 
Hi Mitchell,

I just add some new items to the menu control, and it would be OK. And in
some other test, this problem will not occur from the beginning.

By the way, does this issue occur to any other VS2003 Winform project on
your side? If that problem happens in all of your Winform projects, would
you please give us a simple repro walkthrough for research?

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply Gary, I missed it at first!

I wish it did happen with any consistency, but I'm afraid it doesn't. I
remember it happening before on a few projects but I can't remember
which ones. I've tried to reproduce it a couple of times on new
single-form projects but have been unable to. I'm aorry I can't be of
more help!

That's OK. It may be a phantom problem of the Visual Studio IDE. If this
problem persists to a specific project of yours, you can send that
stand-alone project (zipped) to us for research.

Have a nice day!
