I am having an enourmous amount of difficulty in getting UIStudio to work at all. Having used the previous version I thought this would present minimal difficulty, but unfortunately am very dissapointed with the results thus far.
In tracking down the problem I removed everything from my app except the main form. Then I added a 3rd party toolbar control at the top of the application, which works fine. Then I add the DockingManager and add two empty toolwindows. This works fine as well. As soon as I put a user control into any of the toolwindows and attempt to rebuild the solution, the entire form disappears and when I attempt to run what was just built, the toolbars have been deleted! After which, the designer shows me this 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.
The designer loader did not provide a root component but has not indicated why.
So, at this point, even the most basic task of creating a toolwindow seems impossibly difficult. This is a real disappointment given the quality of products I've seen up until now. I've done a quick test against a different docking product and have not seen the same problem, so I don't think its a problem with the toolbar control. Please tell me what I need to do to get this working.
