• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Why simple large forms are rendered that slow?

  Hi   Some project, like the one that I’ve been working on the past 2 years, require large forms, combined from hundreds of controls, a single form can go 10 or 20 pages long.   We are currently using Microsoft InfoPath 2003 with the .NET framework, and although it is not that fast, rendering of a large from with a 1000 text boxes for example will take couple of seconds.   Of course our forms are much complex than just having text boxes, but I tried to build an Avalon application with a 1000 text boxes, and the performance was even worse than Windows Forms, a simple Web Form (HTML), or even InfoPath!.   I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Paging in toolbar off-by-one

  I'm using the ReportViewer control in a WinForms project, using Local processing mode.  On the report itself, it always correctly shows the current page and total number of pages in the report using Globals!PageNumber and Globals!TotalPages.  However, in the toolbar page navigator, the total number of pages is always initially shown as one less than the actual number of total pages. For example, I've got a report that actually has 8 pages.  When I view the report in ReportViewer, in my report header it indicates "Page 1 of 8".  However, in the ReportViewer toolbar page navigator, it indicates "1 of 7". Strangely, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Is Intellisense autocompletion active?

  Hello, I'd like to bring this issue again. I received a valid answer for VS2005, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it for VS.NET 2003 (and possibly 2002). The question is: how can I determine whether the Intellisense autocompletion drop-down is on display Some users of my product would like it to behave differently depending on the circumstance, and I'd like to provide the functionality. Indirect methods would also be useful: QueryStatus on a certain command returning a different value, etc...
