Visual Studio Designer deleting necessary designer code

[Jason]

Hello,

I'm trying to use the control from here:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tabs/Slider.aspx

But the problem is that when I close the form that I put the control on, the
designer removes the call to "new Slider.xSlider()" from the designer file.
Why is this happening?

Hello Jason,

Hello,

I'm trying to use the control from here:

on, the designer removes the call to "new Slider.xSlider()" from the
designer file. Why is this happening?

Which version of Visual Studio, what kind of project (Web, Windows?)?

Can you post the code to a small (smaple) form to show what is going wrong?

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 for my main project, but it also happens in
Visual Studio 2008.

The easiest example would be to download the project from the Code Project
link, open the project in Visual Studio 2008, make a change to any property
on main.cs and then close and reopen the form.

Thanks!

It happens here also, not really sure why. I placed the control in it's own
project and made the constructor public instead of internal (I guess this
is the key element here). All the problems went away. Changed this on xSlider.cs
line 17.

Hope this helps.
