I have problem with the form size in Visual Studio for an Outlook ADX Task pane.
When I save the form in Visual Studio, the form size is not saved.
Reopen the form in VS designer the form size is always 1942 x 1102.
In xxx.designer.cs I can see that the this.clientsize line is missing.
I created a new test project and that works fine with clientsize line save ok.
I have also tried to change sevarl of the properties, but nothing has helped me.
I have not been alble to find any topics on this in you forum.
Do you have any idea about what is wrong with my VS project?
I have made a temporary fix by assign a value to ClientSize property in Form constructer:
public ADXOlFormSendSms()
{
InitializeComponent();
// Temporary due to VS Designer not saving ClientSize
this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(600,730);
}
I use VS 15.7, Add-in-Express 9.1

Hello Jock,
Can it be that the AddinModule.Designer.cs file is read-only for some reason?

Hi Andrei,
No.
I can edit the xx.designer.cs
I tried to add the ClientSize line, save and then open form in VS designer.
Then the form is displayed with correct size.

Hi Andrei,
I am not sure if you understood that I still have the problem.
When I reload after saving, the form again has the size 1942 x 1102,
Because the ClientSize line is not part of the xxx.desingner.cs.

Hello Jock,
I'm sorry for the confusion.
I create a new form and see its size is set to 300x300: in InitializeComponent located in ADXOlForm1.Designer.cs I see this line this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(300, 300). I switch to the designer and change the form size: the designer reflects this change in the InitializeComponent() method: this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(185, 195). What of the above doesn't work or works differently for you?

Hi Andrei,
When I save the form, the ClientSize line is not in the xxx.designer.cs file.
I have two forms in the VS project. The problem goes for both.
Part of ADXOlFormSendSms.designer.cs:
//
// ADXOlFormSendSms
//
this.AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Dpi;
this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;
resources.ApplyResources(this, "$this");
this.Controls.Add(this.buttonTo);
.
.
.
this.Controls.Add(this.lblFrom);
this.Controls.Add(this.btnSend);
this.Controls.Add(this.txtSmsText);
this.Controls.Add(this.txtTo);
this.Controls.Add(this.lblSmsText);
this.Name = "ADXOlFormSendSms";
this.ADXEnter += new AddinExpress.OL.ADXEnterEventHandler(this.ADXOlFormSendSms_ADXEnter);
this.ADXLeave += new AddinExpress.OL.ADXLeaveEventHandler(this.ADXOlFormSendSms_ADXLeave);
this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.ADXOlFormSendSms_Load);
this.Enter += new System.EventHandler(this.ADXOlFormSendSms_Enter);
this.Leave += new System.EventHandler(this.ADXOlFormSendSms_Leave);
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.pictureBox_EditTemplate)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.pictureBoxLogo)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.pictureBox_Add_Recipient)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.errorProvider1)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.pictureBox_RemoveRecipient)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.pictureBox_AddSender)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.errorProvider2)).EndInit();
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.errorProvider3)).EndInit();
this.ResumeLayout(false);
this.PerformLayout();
}
I created a new form ADXOlForm1 in the VS project. This form behaves correct.
In this new form I see a "property" AutoScaleDimensions , that is not vivible in designer properties list and neither is in my problem form.
From ADXOlForm1.designer.cs:
private void InitializeComponent()
{
this.SuspendLayout();
//
// ADXOlForm1
//
this.AutoScaleDimensions = new System.Drawing.SizeF(120F, 120F);
this.AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Dpi;
this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(294, 636);
this.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);
this.Name = "ADXOlForm1";
this.Text = "ADXOlForm1";
this.ResumeLayout(false);
}
Property Localizable was true in my problem form and false in the test form ADXOlForm1.
So I tried to set Localizable to false.
And vupti the ClientSize line reappears in designer.cs.
Why this behavior when using property Localizable?
If you are not allowed to set Localizable it should not be there.
I believe this is a bug.
So my first problem is solved but why this behavior of Localizable?
Can I not use Localizable in ADX forms?

Hello Jock,
If you set Localizable=true, this means localizable properties (including ClientSize) of the form are stored in resources (.resx files), not in InitializeComponent.
ADXOlForm inherits this behavior from System.Windows.Forms.Form.
