Microsoft VS .NET Annoying designer problem

Annoying designer problem





Visual studio .Net still flips on form inheritance.

When you write your own form base class, and you inherit from it, you are no
longer enable to use the graphical opportunities. The whole form has gone
away. You aren't able to add or remove controls by dragging and dropping.



Does Microft have a solution yet?

Heh, that's one of the more annoying things about visual studio,
whenever I'm going to design mode I have to change my inheritance back
to Form to be able to work in design mode.

You can take a look at this article
(http://www.dotnetfordevices.com/articles/26.html) to have a more or less
workable solution. In a week or so I will update the article to actually
make use of different configurations instead of having to define / not
define a symbol in source code.
