Q: 

User control blank on form in VS 2008

I've created a user control that contains a table layout control with various other standard controls like buttons and labels. Yet when I add the user control to one of my forms the control is blank. I've tried building the solution and a see the user-control flicker as if it's being updated, but it remains blank. Also if I actually run the program the usercontrol can not be see on the form.

I've used usercontrols like this in the past. Is there something I'm missing?

A: 

are you combinding autosize on the usercontrol with some sort of Dock, i know i had the same problem when i did so..

Yes the user control is nested in a group box, and another table layout control, but ultimately inside a split container.

.. however I tried adding the control the a new empty form an the control is still blank.

try drawing a border around the control so you can see the actual size of it..
