I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Professional, and found that in the Windows Forms Application project type I'm unable to move any controls on a form in design mode. I tested a few alternatives out and found the following:
Location
field manually in the designer property gridFurthermore, as you can see in the image below, the "cross" icon that indicates that the controls are movable is not visible on any controls.
I've tried the following, but have not yet been able to correct the issue:
Locked
property of both the form and controls is set to False
Form
(as expected, as this is a standard installation and the first time I've used it)Any suggestions would be appreciated.
now you can move your table with controls by mouse drag as per windows appln. otherwise you can only move your control by hitting the space and enter key. Hi, In ASP.Net 2.0, by default it uses flow layout which as you said puts each control next to each other.
NET Framework provides a wealth of control authoring technology. Authors are no longer limited to designing composite controls that act as a collection of preexisting controls. Through inheritance, you can create your own controls from preexisting composite controls or preexisting Windows Forms controls.
It took some time but I finally found a workaround, if not an answer. As it happens, periodically my computer will stop allowing me to drag-and-drop anything. The solution to this is to press the Esc (escape) key, which instantly restores functionality.
I had this happening using multiple monitors. Move VS to the main monitor (1) and all will work fine. Greetz
