Designer - property page not visible

Groffy

Hello,

when using custom report designer on a separate form, at runtime the property card is not visible, and can't be opened by F4. Only when opening the "Data" or "ReportTree" card, the "Property" card becomes visible as well. From this moment on, after closing the "Property" card I can reopen it by pressing F4.

Can somebody confirm this behaviour?


With best regards - Ulrich

Hello,

You have to add the following code in the Form.Load event handler:

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      // restore the design layout. Without this code, the designer tool windows will be unavailable
      designerControl1.RefreshLayout();
    }
