There are multiple "design surfaces" in VS. Depending on the context, it
could refers to Windows or Web Forms designers where you can layout the
controls in your app. it would also refer to the BizTalk designer where you
can orchestrate the various elements in your system visually. There is also
a visual surface for Windows and Web services where you can lay out data
controls, sources, and other objects. Throughout Visual Studio there are
many "design surfaces" that enable you to visually lay out the elements of
you app, reducing the plumbing code you have to write.

How does Ruby compare to Python?? How good is DESIGN of Ruby compared to Python? Python's design is godly. I'm wondering if Ruby's is godly too.

Is there a "Large Scale Python Software Design" ?

by: Andrea Griffini | last post by:

I did it. I proposed python as the main language for our next CAD/CAM software because I think that it has all the potential needed for it. I'm not sure yet if the decision will get through, but something I'll need in this case is some experience-based set of rules about how to use python in this context. For example... is defining readonly attributes in classes worth the hassle ? Does duck-typing scale well in complex

ASP.NET 2.0: Global.asax Design Surface Gone

by: Mark Olbert | last post by:

I have several ASP.NET 1.1 websites where I centralized a read-only dataset (i.e., one which no web page ever changed) and its associated SqlDataAdapters. In 2.0 I noticed that the Global.asax file does not have a design surface, so I can't drag and drop database components onto it. I could configure all this stuff manually, but that would be a lot of work duplicating what the visual designers do just fine. Besides, it would put me way...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
