I've encountered a strange size issue in the UltraGrid Designer.
When I select "Control Settings" on the left side and choose to display Objects on the right side, the object tree gets extremely small in width. I've tried to search for a way to expand this size but so far I've been unsuccessful. I've included a picture below. I have tried restarting Visual Studio (2010) and clicked around and dragged in every splitter in the designer but to no avail. Does anybody know of a fix to this problem?

I took a look at the grid designer code to see if perhaps the size of the tree was being saved to the registry, but it does not appear to be doing so. The size is neither saved nor loaded.
I confirmed this by opening up this page and changing the size by dragging the splitter. When I close the dialog and re-open it, it doesn't remember the size, it always springs back to the default.
So I don't see how this could have happened. Is there anything unusual about the machine you are running on? I'm running Windows 7, myself, and I tried this with Visual Studio 2008.
The only potential solution I can think of is to uninstall and re-install NetAdvantage.
I just tried this on VS2010, too, but I could not get it to happen.
I'm using Windows 7 with Visual Studio 2010.
I tried to uninstall and re-install NetAdvantage but that did not help. Still same problem.
Then I did some digging in the registry and found my problem with the following keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER->Software->Infragistics->Shared->CustomPropertyPage:
ObjectTree = False
ShowDescription = False
ShowToolbar = True
SplitPosition = 0xffffffff
After I changed the keys to:
ObjectTree = True
SplitPosition = 0x000000ec
I was able to get it to work as it used to be. I wonder how this could have happened since I have definitely not tampered with these settings before.
That is very strange. I looked at the source code and I don't see those registry keys even being accessed.
But I'm glad you got it sorted out. :)
