Visual Studio :: Error While Trying To Open The View Designer?
Feb 1, 2010
when I try to open the view designer in my windows application project I get an error msg - there is no editor available for 'C:documents and setting....Form1.vb' Make sure the application for the file type (.vb) is installed.
I was using VS2008 everything ws going well but one day because of some problem i have to reload the windows and VS2008 and since then i am unable to open the designer.It does not give me any error message but i am unable to use any of the feature after clicking design or view designer from solution explorer.I have tried reinstalling the VS2008 but it does not solve my problem.
i am using VS 2005 with Sql Server 2005 Business Inteligance Studio. All my reports are by default open in Xml editor, not in Report Desginer. how to change it to Report Desginer , i don't find any open with option .
I have a masterpage with a content area. When viewing a page in the designer the content area is so narrow it blows the page formatting to pieces. When viewed in a browser it looks fine, just looks bad in the designer.
I've seen other projects on other computers that don't have this problem ... is there a setting for this?
This is in VS 2008. If I right-click in my code-behind page, I get a very useful "View Designer" option, which is great because it saves having to find the .aspx page in the row of document tabs:Problem is, it always opens in Design Mode, not Source Mode, even though in my options, under HTML Designer, I have "Start pages in" set to "Source View" (though I know that usually applies to double-clicking the file in the project explorer):So is there a way of getting the context menu "View Designer" to always open in Source View?Second question: Is there an option/plug-in/hack to change the way VS manages tabs? Specifically, my gripe is it opens2 tabs for the same page (one for aspx and one for aspx.cs), adding to the mess of tabs, which is crazy. Instead of, say, using the buttons at the bottom... is this possible (a mockup):That would be handy. But View Design context menu opening in Source view would be better, if possible.
I am using VS 2005 profesional edition I am creating a webservice asp. net and when i right click in authorsservice.asmx it appears several optiosn but it does not appear "view designer" how can i make this option visible? The fact is that i am following a tutorial in spanish [URL] and It tells me to drag the fields au_id, au_lname, au_fname y city. to the designer surface , but i do not see it and somebody told me to right click in authorsservice.asmx and and pick in hte option view desginer , but i can not find it.
I am trying to use SSIS Designer with BI Development Studio. I downloaded MS Visual Studio 2010 Beta and do not find an option to get into either the SSIS Designer or BI Development studio.
I'm working on a Web Application in Visual Studio 2008. For some reason the CSS only works properly inside visual studio. I can see the CSS inside the design view of the page. When I view the page on localhost the CSS is not being applied. This is just a very simple sample that I am working with. Only 2 pages, a master page, and a default page.
I have a problem in which some nested controls on a page are not updated in the designer file. I have deleted the designer file, selected Convert to Web Application, but still the controls are missing.
I know there is a supposed fix at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdevtools/archive/2010/03/05/hotfix-for-issue-with-auto-generated-designer-files-not-adding-controls.aspxI am running VS 2010 Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel.
We converted our web application project into website project..We had resources created in first project..after conversion the resources doenst seem to work..I get an error saying "Resources is not a member of My" ....So I have created a new resource file and tried to generate designer.vb file...I have tried using resgen but I get errors.. Is there any other way this can be done.
I fixed my last web project and I have to fix another one.I created a new page and it puts the name codefile attribute correctly.I paste in the html, but it doesn't create the designer file.All I see is the aspx and the .vb code file.
I have created one new project in vb. When i create the control in aspx page , the designer .aspx.vb not updating properly? I should write the corresponding control in .aspx.vb file.
We have two installs of VS 2008. One on a machine that previously had 2005 installed and one on a new [clean] machine with no previous Visual Studio install.The clean machine install went fine, however when we open an aspx page in design view the layout is "scrunched" up. In source view the text matches the text in source view [of a copy of the same aspx page].In design view on the 2005/2008 VS installed machine, the layout is fine.Layout on the page is done in a "Table", with various text boxes, buttons, gridviews.
And just to reiterate, the aspx file in design view [using VS 2008 SP1] on the machine that has VS 2005/2008 installedlooks fine, no problem.The same page loaded in design view on the clean machine with VS 2008 SP1 installed is "scrunched" up.For example the gridview that should be at the top right of the page is in left-center of the page and the gridview that should be at the bottom-center of the page is also at the left-center, directly on top of the gridview that should be at the top right sideof the page.Have compared the config of VS 2008 on both machines and can't find a problem!
im developing an asp.net website application but suddenly all changes i make to the page in the visual studio designer are not being saved for some reason. Every thing i do in the code behind file is saved with out any problem, also if i edit the .aspx file but in sourceview, the changes are saved, but if i drag a control from the toolbox onto the page designer and set some properties and then save, nothing will have been saved when i close and re-open the page, all changes are lost.

Its confusing and i have no idea why.Edit: also this happens on only one aspx file. All the other files edits are saved.[URL]
In a custom component, there is a popup window that should appear to me so that I can manipulate one of the lists (an in-built editor). The component is Telerik, but I don't think that has anything to do with it (maybe).
The popup window is no longer popping up to me. I wonder if it got minimized or it's a z-index thing, where the window is behind VS? But this locks up VS, and I can't do anything within it until I cancel the window. But I can't cancel the window because I can't see it... and so that is really slowing me down and is really frustrating.
Is there a way to get around this? A key press to bring this to the front or give it the focus?
