How to lock the Height resizing in a .NET Custom Control while in design mode?

Question

I'm developing a C# .NET Custom Control and I want to prevent the user, while in design mode, from resizing the Height, while allowing them to reize the Width.

Answer 1

Did you try to set MinHeight and MaxHeight properties?

Answer 2

Try using the 'DesignMode' property, this indicates that you are in design mode, i.e. from the UI designer mode....see here on MSDN...

public int Height(){
get{ }
set{ if (this.DesignMode) return;
     else this.myHeight = value;
    }
}
