This is a weird one.
I have a series of "SmartParts " which are CAB (Composite Application Block)
Views which are finally just UserControls (99% of the time)
Anyway, I layout my UserControl in the VS2005 designer, but at runtime, the
controls are in different locations and different sizes. I have been able
to restore their sizes by putting a hack together that will set their sizes
to the correct values in the UserControl's Resize EventHandler, but like I
said, it's a hack and is a pain.
I can reproduce this with a brand new UserControl with two simple TextEdit
controls and no other code. In the designer I place them right next to each
other, at runtime they are farther apart. Anchoring isn't the issue, they
aren't docked, just floating.
Any ideas?
I tried it with two textboxes placed on a usercontrol and at design and
run time they do not move.
There must be something different with your control or install of vs2005.
My control follows
