• Windows Forms Maximized Screen Similar to Pinnacle Studio

  Hey, I don't know how many have used Pinnacle Studio before, but whenever the application is maximized, the the forms don't really maximize (in the sense that most people think of). Instead, a black scrren fills in the area surrounding the main form. It is probably a form of cheating, by not having to make the software resolution independent. If someone knows how that is being done, please let me know. That trick would really come in hand ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Generic Test does not seem to deploy the exe

  I seem to be missing something simple here, I guess. The help states that the exe being run by the generic test will be copied to the deployment directory. This is not happening. Even if I add it to the "additional files" list, in effect forcing it to be copied, it is not run from this directory. This matters a great deal to me because I am trying to use a Generic Test to run my GUI to produce Code Coverage results. So I need the test ...Show All
