.NET Forum / Windows Forms / Design Time / September 2006Annoying behavior of the Design Editor
Hi, does anybody has the same problem, that quite often when you try just to select an object on a form, the Designer instead of just selecting the object inserts an unwanted OnClick event handler e.g. private void label1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { }and I defenetly didn't do a double click! Also when selecting objects, sometimes they are moved unwanted. Has anybody have a solution for this? Best regards Thomas Hi Tomas, Thank you for posting. I think the problem may be related to the current VS environment settings on your machine. You may have a try reseting all settings. To do this, open VS IDE, select the Tools menu, import and export settings and a Import and Export Settings Wizard appears. In the wizard, select the radio button of Reset all settings and press the Next button. Then you may follow the direction of the wizard to reset all settings. Please try my suggestion and let me know the result.

Only if I click very very carefully I can prevent this. Regards Thomas > Hi Tomas, > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > from your issue. > ==================================================== Hi Thomas, Thank you for your response. I think this problem may be related to the double-click speed setting of your Mouse. It seems that the speed has been set too slow. You may have a try setting it faster. To set the double-click speed setting of your Mouse, go to the Start menu, select Control Panel. In the Mouse Properties window, go to the Double-click speed groupbox and set speed a little faster. Hope this helps. Sincerely, Linda Liu Microsoft Online Community Support ==================================================== When responding to posts,please "Reply to Group" via your newsreader so that others may learn and benefit from your issue. ==================================================== Sorry, it's still the same and I made my double click period extremely short. Regards Thomas > Hi Thomas, > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > from your issue. > ==================================================== Hi Thomas, You have mentioned in your first message that "Also when selecting objects, sometimes they are moved unwanted." It seems like you have turned on ClickLock feature of your Mouse. To check this setting, open the Control Panel window and double click Mouse. In the Mouse Properties window, you will see the ClickLock groupbox in the Buttons tab. If the checkbox of Turn on ClickLock has been checked, this feature is turned on. If the checkbox is checked, please have a try not checking it. Press Ok button in the properties window. Then you may check whether the problem still exists in your VS designer. Hope this helps.

Hi Linda, Im using aTrackball from Logitech and I didn't find any ClickLock feature. Also I don't have any problems like this in any other application and I can promis you Im quite long in this business. Best regards Thomas > Hi Thomas, > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no > rights. Hi Thomas, Thank you for your update. If it is possible, would you please have a try changing a pointing device of your computer to a Mouse? If the problem doesn't exist in VS designer when you are using the Mouse, it seems that the problem isn't caused by VS. If the problem isn't related to VS and you have installed logitech device driver for the Trackball to obtain specific features, I think the problem may be related to the device driver you have installed. You may have a try unsintalling the logitech device driver and then check whether the problem still exists. If the problem does not exist at this time, it's obviously that it's the device driver that caused the problem. If you need logitech device driver of the Trackball for specific features, you should go to logitch website to download the latest device driver. Please try my suggestions and let me know the result. Have a nice day!

Hi, I now found the real reason. It's because of the automatic hiding of not used toolbars. If I have the Properties dialog selected and try to select a button on the Dialog in the designer it will display automatically the allignment toolbar and move the whole designer a part down exept for the button that was selected by the mouse. Is there a possibility to prevent this? Best Thomas > Hi Thomas, > [quoted text clipped - 39 lines] > This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no > rights. Hi Thomas, > If I have the Properties dialog selected and try to select a button on the Dialog in the designer it will display automatically the allignment toolbar and move the whole designer a part down exept for the button that was selected by the mouse. Could you tell me what you mean by 'I have the Properties dialog selected and try to select a button on the Dialog in the designer'? Do you mean 'Properties window'? I look forward to your reply. Sincerely, Linda Liu Microsoft Online Community Support Yep, I meant that I enter some value in the property window and a button in the designer while still the property window has the focus and therefore the allignment toolbar is not visible. Cheers Thomas > Hi Thomas, > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > Linda Liu > Microsoft Online Community Support Hi Thomas, Thanks for your prompt response. Generally speaking, we mainly use Properties window to config a control at design-time. To do this, we open a form in the designer and select a control on the form. At this time, Properties window shows all the properties of the selected control. Even if we are entering some value in Properties window, the form designer is visible and the Layout tool bar is visible too. Then if we select a control, i.e. a button on the form in the designer, the Properties window will lost focus. Sincerely, Linda Liu Microsoft Online Community Support Hi Linda, at my desk, the behaviour is different from yours. The moment I click into the property window the Allignment toolbar vanishes and if I click back on the designer it appears again. Oh, I forgot to say, that I have the allignement toolbar docked below the standard toolbar. I just found out, if I let it float I don't have the problem anymore. Best Thomas > Hi Thomas, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > Linda Liu > Microsoft Online Community Support Hi Thomas, You have mentioned the "allignment toolbar". Do you mean the "Layout toolbar"? On my pc, whether the Layout toolbar is docked or not, when I click the Properites window, the Layout toolbar is visible. When I click back on the form designer, the Layout toolbar is still visible. If you think it is necessary, you could send me a screen shot for the problem. To get my actual email address, remove the 'online' from my displayed email address. Sincerely, Linda Liu Microsoft Online Community Support Hi Thomas, Have you installed some 3rd party add-ins in the VS IDE? If yes, you may have a try uninstalling them. You could also have a try logging in the machine with a different user id to see if the problem still exists. If the problem still exists, and you want to go on the discussion, please feel free to post here. Sincerely, Linda Liu Microsoft Online Community Support Hi Thomas, How is it going with the problem?
