Visual Studio .NET garbles dialog size in resource view - NVidia Desktop Management problem

Just a post for anyone else that is having this problem (as I've now
discovered the solution).

The problem is where when looking in the dialog resource view of an
MFC project in Visual Studio .NET (2003 in my case) the dialog sizing
gets garbled and it chops off the edges of the dialog somehow and
renders the user unable to edit the dialog properly without screwing
the sizing up.

Well after months of having this problem I finally discovered that the
problem was happening because I was using the Desktop Management
feature of nView in the Nvidia drivers of my Nvidia card. Turning the
Desktop Management off fixed this problem. Typical Nvidia driver
quality.

In addition this was also causing me a problem where SQL Server Query
Analyzer would hang after doing virtually anything. Again, turning off
DM fixed this.

This was on Windows 2000 Pro, don't know whether this is a problem on
XP or not.

Hi, I have a strange problem with Visual Studio .NET 2003 in a C++ project: I create a dialog in the "Resource View", and when reopening the dialog in the "Resource View" the dialog appears to have changed size to the latest snapping control settings ? Have anybody else experienced this problem? And does anybody have a solution?

Hi, On Friday I attended the Microsoft EVO conference in London where they talked about Vista, Office 2007 and Exchange 2007 and how they all work together beautifully, how they were all "people-ready" etc...

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,...
