How can I get the 2005 ide to have the dots in the form that the
controls are aligned to like in 2003?
5  1032 
Tools - Options - Windows Form Designer - general - LayoutMode.
I used to go blind with the dots though.

How can I get the 2005 ide to have the dots in the form that the controls
are aligned to like in 2003?
I'm having trouble getting the controls placed where I want them because
it's always snapping them to alignment with other controls. I'm pretty
sure you can turn of the snap to alignment with the dots but I need some
kind of positive alignment. I'd LIKE a compromise between the two maybe
the lines like it defaults to in 2005 but not making them snap into
place with other controls. It's too hard to explain so I'm not sure why
I'm even typing this. Got work to do.

Personally I find the 2005 version of aligning controls much better than the
old grid style and I wouldn't go back, but are you aware that holding left
ALT key while dragging temporarily turns of snap alignment, which can help
with precise alignment in some cases.

No, I wasn't aware of that. That could be all I need.

Ideally, I would like to have the two versions running at the same time and

Hi there,
I have one another question on VSS 2005 and VS 2003.
We had few projects built in VS 2003 and we had all of those projects
under the VSS 6.0 until now. But as part of our development environment
up gradation our idea is slowly move few projects from VSS 6.0 to VSS
2005. As a test we did move an ASP.NET project that was built in VS
2003 project (no solution file) from VSS 6.0 to VSS 2005 and the move
was successfully (not...

Is 2005 worth the upgrade?
Some time ago, I read it was really slow. Is this true?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Also, how easy is it to upgrade from 2003 app to 2005? Does it break
everything in typical, MS "Sorry, that's your problem" style?
Thanks,
Shane

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

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,...
