I have been searching and haven't seen anyone else complaining about this, so I will throw it out here to see what others have experienced.
I am running Vista Business on this computer with Aero enabled. Inside of the VS IDE, I have a form with two TextBox controls on it. One is ReadOnly the other is not. However, when I sit here looking at the form in the designer, I can barely tell the difference between the two controls. In XP there was a noticable change in the background color to denote that the control is ReadOnly. I have played around with a bunch of settings on the PC to see if I can get the colors set to where I can see the difference and I haven't found an acceptable alternative.
This isn't the only issue I have had with Vista and VS. In XP, there was a line drawn all the way around the control on the screen. This made it easy to set positioning, etc. In Vista, the border at the bottom of the control is almost not visible.
Anyone else run into this. Hvae you been able to overcome this? I am about to format this drive and install XP on it.
I will attach the Vista screenshot, but note that the screenshot actually added more color to the image than what it shows on the screen.
