Bug with Visual C# designer?

Hi all,

I am having this problem with C# 2005 professional, while I could never see
such a thing in VS 2003. The problem is that the form designer doesn't
reflect the changes I make to a form through the property panel on-the-fly.
Even if a change is reflected in the designer, when I compile and run the
form, it is just like the way it was before changing it through designer.
(The changes donot take effect at compile)

This is the good part thought! There was a time when I closed the IDE and
started it again, hoping to solve this update issue, but when I went back to
my code, well, I had lost all my work done to the form after a special
point.

There are also other issue, for example, the code viewer in c# becomes very
slow if my code goes beyond 1200 lines.
I am currently working on a critical project and really need your immediate
help.
Besides, I cannot download the entire big VS 2005 SP1 and don't think that
update would solve my problem.
Any hotfixes or tweaks?

Thanks for your help anyway.

Hi,

I had several bug's with the designer that SP1 did fix. Try
downloading it first.

Can you reproduce the bug? Maybe you can guide us to reproduce it and
we will be able to check this out.

Cheers,
Moty

Not that it's helping you, but I never had any issue with the code view,
before or after SP1 and with big or small files.
And although there is a limit to the size of a method (at least in the
compact framewor) I already had big method (longer than 1200 line) which
compile and run fine.

No offence but this is pretty silly to complain about bugs and not install
the latest patch. That is the FIRST thing you should try and you don't want
to try that.

Since I got such good feedback from the Xml comments question I will ask this of the group as well. Is VS.NET 2005 handling the visual inheritance problems centered around controls and forms that are decorated with MustInherit any better than 2003 did? I am getting really tired of having to do the good old '#If DEBUG Then' workaround just to get by this.

Visual Studio 2005 recently stopped generating the *.designer.vb files for my *.aspx and *.ascx files. I am using Service Pack 1, and do not believe I did anything differently than normal prior to this happening. Is there anything that could have caused this? Does anyone know of a way to fix it?

Hi all, I am experiencing a strange thing happening with a "designer.vb" page. Controls I manually declare in this page are automatically deleted after I drop another control on a ".aspx" page. - Why is this happening? - Can I disable automatic declaration and have everything be declared manually? - Any other options to fix this? Thanks in advance. Goran Djuranovic
