  • 0

I have a dynamic user control that instantiates various bars and labels dynamically based on the number of members in a object group. This functionality works out very well, but the issue is that I am not the only developer on this project. I am new to the team and the “senior” members want all of the components to work in the designer. Since the components of the user control are generated at run time I am not sure how to go about making some/any of them show up in design view. Is this even an option?

    I don’t think that’s possible, because there is no markup for the designer to show. I find it hard to believe that they would expect dynamically created controls to show in the designer.

    EDIT

    Thinking about it some more, why don’t you just add a few hard-coded instances of the control in the markup, with the ability to add/remove. That way, the control is displayed in the designer, but you can still add/remove instances. That would probably be the best compromise in this case.
