Hi,
I have tried innumerable variants on that but it never succeeded.
In the mean time I have found a way to do it with a python script.

Yes, that would do the trick. I have done some testing and once InitializeComponent has executed the code actually ends up in the Form_VisibleChanged() function where I could add some code to correct any goofs caused by the designer.
It is a bit silly though to have to cure things like that. For the designer to be really functional it should support reassigning the Control.Collection it selected.

Hi Espen,
Thanks for the info. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Hi nv3,
I was beginning to suspect that was the case. In the mean time I have successfully used GetWindowRect to get the size.
Thanks for the info.

Fair enough but why does the "LineTo" work then and what is the alternative ?

Oh yes, I have found out it only works once. if you trigger WM_PAINT for the dialog using Invalidate() or SendMessage(WM_PAINT) nothing happens any more except for erasing the drawing when using invalidate.

I am really new to this and I am getting more and more confused.
