Application Settings Form Size not giving expected results

[LITHIA]

Hi,

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and I have set up the application settings to bind the form's size property to the config file.

I'm just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem, so I know it's a bug in Visual Studio 2005 and not my app.

1) When I minimize my program and then unminimize it, the size of the window goes to 0, 0. I have no idea why it is doing this.

2) When I maximize and then restore the form, it doesn't restore to its previous size when I maximized it. I seems to stay at its maximized size, but just moves so it's overlapping off the side of the screen.

I have no clue why my program seems to be doing this, so I'm guessing it may be a problem in Visual Studio. If it is, I'll submit a bug report to Microsoft explaining. If it isn't... well, I think I'll still submit a bug report to Microsoft and see if they can help me if someone else on here can't give any assistance.

Thanks!

Can u tell me what is the use of binding the form property to the config file?

I'm not sure of the use either, but here's what I think is going on. It sounds like it's bound to automaticaly save the values to the config file.... So, what it sounds like is happening is that you maximize it, so it's height & width changes to new values, which are then saved to the config file. The data is being saved AFTER the change, not before. So it's not saving the old values.

So I guess it's a problem with the Application Settings. I just tried remaking it, and I still get the problem.

I've also noticed it seems to not retain the setting on the properties either. It keeps going back to (None), even though the setting is still assigned to it.

I'll report it now. Thanks.
