It sounds like you're hitting a bug in the codedom round tripping support. IronPython Studio is really more of a sample and leaves much to be desired so it's likely you'll hit many more. Michael Foord who has done tons of winforms development I believe recommends designing it in C# and then you can just subclass that from Python.
From: users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com [mailto:users-boun...@lists.ironpython.com] On Behalf Of Mohammed Khan Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2009 8:56 AM To: users@lists.ironpython.com Subject: [IronPython] question about code <-> designer transitions Hi folks, I just started using iron python studio a couple of days ago, so this may be a newbie question: >From the code view, I added some code to the __init__ method, and some code to >the initializecomponent method, when I go to the designer and change something >(for eg the tabindex of a control) and go back to code view, I get one of two >behaviors: 1. The code I typed disappears, the other code remains intact. 2. The __init__ method only contains a pass, ie it removes the call to initializecomponent.. this of course causes the app to come up with an empty form if I run it.. I appreciate any help on this matter, Thanks, moek
