.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / August 2005Arrow keys not working in the dialog editor
When I'm working in the dialog editor in VS.NET 2003, the arrow keys do not function. On other developers' machines that I've seen, the arrow keys move the selected object (button, static text, editbox, etc.) 1-pixel in the requested direction. In my IDE they do nothing at all. I can't find any setting that would affect this, and my online searches have turned up nothing as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It appears your machine's VS.NET IDE has some problems, the arrow keys should be used to move the selected object in the dialog editor, this feature is by default and there isn't any setting in VS.NET to change/disable it. So in current scenario we want to know collect more information about this issue, does this problem only occur from recently and have you found the same problem with Windows Form Designer? Thanks!

Hi Gary, > So in current scenario we want to know collect more information about this > issue, does this problem only occur from recently and have you found the > same problem with Windows Form Designer? This problem is not recent. It goes back as far as I remember, at least to VS.NET 2002. I just checked and the same thing does occur with the Windows Forms Designer as well. The arrows keys have no effect on the selected item(s). Thanks for your help, Jason Hi Jason, >This problem is not recent. It goes back as far as I remember, at least > to VS.NET 2002.

If so, have you tried a repairation/reinstallation of your VS.NET 2003? If it doesn't work neither, this problem may be a product issue, in such scenario it is better for you if one of our PSS support engineers could work with you. This may need you submit a support incident in Microsoft PSS (Product Support Service). As a MSDN subscriber, you have two free support incidents. By the way, if the problem is confirmed by Microsoft PSS as a product issue, PSS won't charge money. Every MSDN subscriber has two free support incidents. You could use one of them to contact Microsoft PSS. So you don't need to pay money yet. Surely if the issue is a product issue, you still have two free support incidents. For your reference, I attached steps to contact Microsoft PSS here: You can contact Microsoft Product Support directly to discuss additional support options you may have available, by contacting us at 1-(800)936-5800 or by choosing one of the options listed at: http://support.microsoft.com/d-efault.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;Offe-rProPhone Thanks for your understanding!

This has also happen on my system with VS.NET 2003. When I reboot the system it seems to go away. I have a feeling the Scroll Lock may be part of the problem. I use a KVM and the key sequenct to switch system is Scroll Lock + Up or Down Arrow. I really find this anoying when working on a form.
