I have a form with a TabControl on it. I would like to create customized
TabPages. I have added a few class to my project that inherit from TabPage.
I can create instances of my customized TabPages and add them to the TabPage
collection of the TabControl. I would like to use the Visual Editor to
create the layout for the controls on the TabPages, and this is where things
go wrong. I can add controls, but I can't for example resize a GroupBox and
add controls to the GroupBox. Why is this, and what do I have to do to be
able to work with them like I normally would?

Should work OK.
I have seen problems like this in VS2005 Beta1, but only when using a Custom
Designer.
