Hello everyone,
I recently moved from V12.2 to V13.1 and I am getting the following error:
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: The Controls collection of the UltraPanel is read-only. Modify the UltraPanel.ClientArea.Controls collection instead.
When I click on the call stack, I find:
at Infragistics.Win.Misc.UltraPanel.UltraPanelControlCollection.Add(Control value)at System.Windows.Forms.Design.ControlDesigner.DesignerControlCollection.Add(Control c)
When I click "view detail", I get:
{"An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: The Controls collection of the UltraPanel is read-only. Modify the UltraPanel.ClientArea.Controls collection instead."}
When I click copy exception detail to the clipboard, I get:
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled HResult=-2146233079 Message=An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: The Controls collection of the UltraPanel is read-only. Modify the UltraPanel.ClientArea.Controls collection instead.

Honestly, since it will no longer load up correctly (no idea what happened/what I did, it used to work just fine and I don't think anything has changed apart from my Infragistics version), I don't really know what to change or where to start. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm guessing the answer is in the last bit of info I pasted but I'm having trouble reading what it's trying to tell me.
If you need any additional information, let me know. Thanks!
Hello Jeremy,
Please try the steps below to fix your issue:
1. Open Designer file of your Form
2. Find all places where you have code like: this.ultraPanel1.Controls.Add(....
3. Replace the code from point 2 with this.ultraPanel1.ClientArea.Controls.Add(....
4. Clean your solution
5. Rebuild your solution
Please take a look on attached video file for more details and if you have any questions, feel free to write me
Regards
Georgi,
I don't use controls.add anywhere in my code . . . Any other ideas or can I email I code to you (not post it in the forums) to take a look at? Let me know. Thanks!
