how to get .net designer frame articles?

[°Ë´óɽÈË]

I'm studying the designer in .net frame, and met many new things such as
System.Windows.Forms.DesignerFrame,
System.Windows.Forms.FormDocumentDesigner, but I can't find anything about
it in MSDN. Do you know how to get the article about them, how does the .net
Frame Designer work, and how to develop a new Designer like Form Designer of
VS.net?

Any responsibility is welcome. Thank you.

Hi,

..NET forms uses instance of type FormDocumentDesigner as a root designer.
Unfortuanately this class declared in System.Designer.dll assembly, as many
others, is decalred as internal and cannot be used. For us the framework
exposes DocumentDesigner class which is supposed to be used for writing root
designers for forms. And it seems to work fine except for one little small
thing the makes it usless in many scenarios. This class doesn't support
design of main menu objects. It supports context menus only. Why they
decided to do that I don't know. One can find some reasons for that, but I
personally think it's not fair.
Anyways, you can find some good articles in the official windows forms site
