It's one thing to lose productivity because of mistakes I make, but
when productivity is lost because of the development tool that is
frustrating. For example I've noticed there are times when a form can
become unviewable in the designer leaving the developer with having to
attempt to make fixes to the designer.vb code with only the fairly
cryptic error message thrown be designer to guide him. I've had files
removed from inclusion in the project -- this may have been something
I inadvertently did, however what was frustrating was that the only
clue I had was that the item had been replaced with a 'blank paper'
icon which is not well documented (even a tooltip would be nice). On
another occasion I found myself unable to make changes to my form in
designer -- I couldn't delete, add, or move controls on a particular
form (note the controls were NOT locked). The only solution turned out
to be shutting down VS and restarting. I hope that the next version
2008 is more robust, as I can't recall these kind of problems with VS
6.
Is it just me????
