ControlAdded and Design Mode

Hi all.

I am creating a ContainerControl that will manage a custom layout scheme. I am trying to do some things such as sizing, docking, anchoring, etc. in the ControlAdded event.

The code works well, and if the process is frozen by a MessageBox I can see that everything works well in the designer, until AFTER the event has fired.

When the event is done firing, THEN default values are assigned to the Control that was added.

Is there some way I can either stop these default values from being assigned after my event, or am I going about this the wrong way?

Thanks.
