I think it's associating my Web Service's CS files with the related ASMX files. But whatever's happening, I can't double-click to open the CS files - I have to "view Code" or it opens in the designer. Anyone know how to turn off this automatic behavior? I just want to edit the code! ...

Is there any designer for rdl files (visual studio .net reports) that can be used on a web browser? ...
Users of my web app need to edit and "save as" their reports and then execute and export them to PDF or Excel files. I need to know if there is a designer (web) for simple reports (open source would be better). Reports are not complex: just data fields, master-detail, labels, simple formulas, lines, static images... Is there any? (too m...
I have a public property set in my form of type ListE<T> where: public class ListE<T> : IList<T>, ICollection<T>, IEnumerable<T>, IList, ICollection, IEnumerable Yeah, it's a mouthful, but that's what the Designer requires for it to show up as an editable collection in the Properties window. Which it does! So, I click the little [..] ...
I have used Photoshop CS2's "Save for Web" feature to create a table of images for my site layout. This HTML appears fine in a web browser, however when imported into Visual Studio and viewed in the site designer, the metrics are wrong and there are horizontal gaps between images (table cells). The output from Photoshop does not refer ...
We use the DesignSurface and all that good IDesignerHost goodness in our own designer. The designed forms are then persisted in our own bespoke format and all that works great. WE also want to export the forms to a text-based format (which we've done as it isn't that difficult). However, we also want to import that text back into a docu...
I'm using a custom winforms 2.0 designer (i.e. my apps hosting the designer) which is being used for a small internal project. So far all the controls have their properties edited via the property grid - but I'd like to make it a little more user-friendly by allowing in-line editing - does anyone know of an example of how to implement i...
There's a famous bug in Visual Studio that prevents you from using the form designer on a subclass of an abstract form. This problem has already been elucidated and solved most elegantly by Urban Potato; that's not the part I'm having trouble with. The trouble is, I have duplicated the technique described by Urban Potato, and include...
I need to get existing web pages into an existing ASP.NET web site in Visual Studio 2008. I simply tried to drag and drop the whole file folder content into the Visual Studio Solution Explorer or even to copy them into the web site folder. Both ways, Visual Studio seems unable to map the .designer.cs files to the corresponding .aspx (or...

The class in the list has each of its properties decorated with a description attribute but the descriptions do not show up in the Collection Editor In the IDE designer is there a way to turn on the Description panel in the standard Collection Editor?

Am I the only one who doesn't use Visual Studio designer for webforms? Literally the only time I use it is to drag and drop a user control on the screen (which I think cut and paste to the correct location). Other than that, what good is the designer? I also hate any declarative tag programming, so that might explain it (all code-behi...
I'm having a problem, creating a fixed-size overall panel for a touchscreen GUI application that has to take up the entire screen. In a nutshell, the touchscreen is 800 x 600 pixels, and therefore I want the main GUI panel to be that size. When I start a new GUI project in NetBeans, I set the properties of the main panel for min/max/pr...

Are there any Web page designing software out there that allow me to drag and drop controls just like desktop applications. I found it quite difficult to design a web page using the designer in Visual Studio 2008 as it constrains me to a flow or grid layout. (I am not an accomplished designer but there should be some ease as one experien...

While I have successfully added the UserControl to the t...
