Can't select objects
posted

I've got a weird issue.  I've got a form with a bunch of labels and buttons.  I'm using VS2017.

On my laptop, I can select any of the objects and alter their properties.  On my desktop, I can't because I'm not able to select them.

Instead, all the objects on the page are listed in the bottom window.  I can select them there and alter the properties, but not on the form itself.

However, if I add any new items to the form while open on my desktop, I can select them in the form just fine.  So why can't I select the ones that were created on my laptop?

These boxes are synched through git so I'm working from the same code.

I've attached a pic of the box that isn't behaving.  It doesn't have much of the form, but it shows the bottom pane.

    Hello Sean,
    Thank you for contacting Infragistics!
    The reason this is happening is because you do not have the product installed on your desktop. To be able to change things in the designer you need the design assemblies installed on the machine. Since you don’t you are unable to modify the controls.
