Design controls on a Panel
-
Hello, I have a small application that exposes various behaviors via dialog windows. I want to modify the application so that instead of popping up dialog windows it will simply show a new panel in the main window area. My idea is to create several Panels to replace the dialog boxes. I want to be able to design these Panels in the designer just like you would design a new form. The designer doesn't support this, so I must be barking up the wrong tree. I really want to treat each panel separately in the designer rather than just stacking all these panels on the main window (which makes it difficult to see what's going on). Did I articulate that well enough? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Is a user control what you are looking for?
Why is common sense not common? Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level where they are an expert. Sometimes it takes a lot of work to be lazy Individuality is fine, as long as we do it together - F. Burns

That's exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks! (I accidentally selected "custom control" which is entirely different and confused my one-track mind).
