Manfred,

I wanted to make a slight screen change to the TestTTN2 app. Due to the size of the textbox and the lack of a vertical scrollbar, the RawGPS screen doesn't display the EnableRawGPSOutput or the DisableRawGPSOutput buttons on my actual device. If  I click on 'View Designer' on FrmMain.cs  the error

"One or more errors encountered while loading the designer. The errors are listed below. Some errors can be fixed by rebuilding your project, while others may require code changes."

I think Microsoft has a call-in hotfix for this but I was wondering how you get around it.

Thanks.

Hi,

By the way - which errors are listed?

Regards

Manfred

Hi,

although I don't knwo the exact reason for this I would try to edit the ...designer.cs to find a solution.
And ensure that you have all references solved before you try to open the form in design view.
