Hello,

I thought I came across this earlier but unfortunaly I can't seem to find this again.

It was this code using Proprocessor directives that would allow the user to assign code that would only get executed during Design time.

I have this Form that changes it's size depending on the content. The method gets called in the Load event. This code should, however, only get executed during Runtime and NOT during Design time.

How would I do this?

Kind regards,

Hi

Sample:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if (!this.DesignMode)

{

MessageBox.Show("Not in design time");

}

}

There's the property for a control called "DesignMode" which is set to true by the designer and is false when running the program normally.

you can prevent code from running during the design time with:
if ( !DesignMode )
{
}

this only applies to things that can be rendered in Design Mode (forms, custom controls, etc)
