I wrote a bunch of code in the .cs file in c# for a winforms application. The application runs fine, and everything is in it's place.
Something like this:
using..
namespace Temp
{
public class Temp : Form
{
Button b1;
TextBox t1;
Temp()
{
b1.Text = "Some Text";
b1.Size = new Size(50,20);
...
}
void function1()
{
// stuff
}
static void Main()
{
Application.Run(new Temp());
}
}
}
How can I modify my code (or fix it somehow) so that the design view displays the elements in their correct positions and view so that I can visually edit them instead of having to trial/error everything.
Edit for Clarification
My application runs fine. The problem is, that I didn't use designer to create the application and so in the designer view, the app is empty. But not empty when I run it, since everything is positioned programmatically in the .cs file. My question is, how can I fix this, so that the designer shows the objects correctly.
There is no quick fix other than to redesign everything?
