Problems after update: Does the design time license work for a specific version only?
posted

Hi,

we have some troubles with the design time license for the Windows Forms Controls. We are working with ig WinForms 13.2. We use the specific version 13.2.20132.1000 in our products. Now we have the situation, that we have a new installation of the ig Controls 13.2. The product has been installed with updates. So the installed ig version is 13.2.20132.2016 (or newer).

The problem is now, that forms cannot be edited in the VS designer. Everything is locked and it seems that VS cannot find the design time license. So, what can we do? Keeping the same version on every computer? Can't we use the new 13.2 in projects where older versions of 13.2 are used? Is a design time license explicit for only one specific version? Since I have a license for 13.2, why can't this license be used to work with 20132.1000 on one machine and with version 20132.2016 on another machine?

Would be great if you can help me fast!

Many thanks in advance!

Robin
