dragging my control to the designer issue

[rodchar]

hey all,
when i drag my control, that i built, on to the designer it shows up as the
smallest possible size. almost looks like a dot until i resize it then all
the controls show up.

can someone please explain?

thanks,
rodchar

Hi,

It is because most probably you didn't specify any default values for width
and height and the control thinks that its width and height are set to 0px.

Can you check that and let me know if you still keep having problems?

Hi,

You can do that in the constructor or you can create your own business rules
to do that or not to do that. It is up to you. You just need to check if
they are zero and set to an higher value if they are.

i tried setting the height and width but the effects were at runtime. the
problem i'm having is in the designer. am i missing an attribute or something?

Hi,

I can't help further as long as I don't see the code.
