I was writing an application that draws a bunch of random lines on a form with the mouse move event. I set the windows start position property of the form to center screen, but no matter what I did the form would appear in the windows default position. After around 30 minutes of cutting code and trying to paste it into new projects, it still wouldn't center the form. I finally gave up trying to center the form by setting the form property, so I changed it to manual and wrote code that centered the form horizontally, and around 50 pixels from the top edge and the code worked. Has any one else had this experience with VS 2005 proffesional? It was really bugging me for some reason.
