No Designer View (VS2008 C++)
-
Hi, I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and seem to have a problem with the form designer. I'm new to MFC and want to create a project that allows me to use the form designer. I create a new MFC application form and all the code is created. When I build and run this project, there is a basic window with a few components. However, I can only seem to see the code for this application. Is it possible for my to open this in the form designer and manually edit the form in the editor rather than through code? Thanks

In VC2005 (and I guess it is similar with VC2008), you have to open the resource editor. On the left side, you have your solution explorer (which is listing all the files from your project). If you look carefully, you should see tabs at the bottom, click on the one called "Ressource View" (or Ctrl + shift + e). There you should be able to browse and edit your resources.

Charting control [v1.5] OpenGL game tutorial in C++Ah, that's perfect, thanks. Would've preferred the easier WinForm methods of having it in the solution, but not complaining :)
