Hi,

I'm developing an application that allow to the user place controls into a form (like design mode). The problem is that I need that the designer form can't be resized. The .NET documentation says that doing an overrides to the SelectionRules property and return the value that you want allow, avoid this feature (resize the control). Why my code don't works?. Any idea?. See the code for the usercontrol.

[code]
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Windows.Forms.Design
Imports System.Drawing

<Designer(GetType(CFQuebForm))> _
Public Class QForm
   Inherits UserControl

#Region " P R O P E R T I E S "

   <CategoryAttribute("QüebControl"), Description("Retorna la versión del componente"), Browsable(True)> _
   Public ReadOnly Property Version() As String
       Get
           Return "1.0"
       End Get
   End Property

   
   Public Sub New()
       MyBase.New()
       SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True)
       SetStyle(ControlStyles.Selectable, True)
       SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, True)
       SetStyle(ControlStyles.FixedHeight, True)
       setstyle(ControlStyles.FixedWidth, True)
       Me.BackColor = Color.White
   End Sub

   Protected Overrides Sub OnResize(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
       MyBase.Size = New Size(250, 300)
   End Sub
End Class

Friend Class CFQuebForm
   Inherits ControlDesigner

   Public Overrides ReadOnly Property SelectionRules() As System.Windows.Forms.Design.SelectionRules
       Get
           Return SelectionRules.Locked
       End Get
   End Property

End Class
[/code]

Like you see... I had that overrides the OnResize event for restrict the control's resize. If you comment the overrides OnResize event, the user can resize the control, yet return SelectionRules.Locked in the overrides SelectionRules property.

Thank You for any help.

PS.

If my control is an instance of the Form class, the problem is the same.
