After a lot of frustration, I finally managed to get the ASP.Net templates I've been working on to allow you to edit the contents of the page in the designer. It was rather annoying having to edit in complete HTML, then go to the designer to drag and drop the necessary components onto the page, only to have to go back to the HTML to format everything.
It's not that I don't mind writing in a non-WYSIWYG editor. OSMusic.Net was done like that, no designer - or development environment for that matter - involved. I wanted to get out of that habit when using ASP.Net, but until I was able to get a designer template actually working the way I wanted to, I had no way of doing that.
How's this done? Well, if you're using Joe Agster's sample, in the PageBody class (Or the PageBodyBase class if you are designing multiple templates), instead of <ParseChildren(False)>, put <ParseChildren(False), System.ComponentModel.Designer(GetType(System.ComponentModel.Design.ComponentDesigner))> there. That will allow you to be able to design your forms through the designer instead of having to rely solely on the HTML editor.

Yeah, it's season 11. But the OTL Season 6 highlight reel is up, this time Fireball has taken the reins! Check out this video jam packed full of kills, deaths, silliness, and Sirius puns. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXstLVjnaGo
Bing is so bad. https://otl.gg is being blocked in their search results, and Bing webmaster tools are absolutely useless, not telling me why it's being blocked.
Does anyone know of some way to get a human to look at this and see what's wrong with it? #bing#microsoft
Me and my wife, despite buying a house of nice size, always seem to get in each other's way, be it in the kitchen, on the stairs, it doesn't matter. She's all up in my two square feet.
I often joke that all I want for Christmas is my two square feet.
I got the honor and privilege of calling the NES Tetris NTSC world record today while running Classic Tetris Wars on my Twitch channel for the very first time. It was thrilling. Congratulations to Blue Scuti for his 6,609,220 level 153 performance. https://clips.twitch.tv/DiligentDeadGoldfishDoritosChip-cx_vDMWAjKaZUK6N
Six Degrees of Sunday, my 6DoF long play Twitch series, is getting revived for 2024. Plus, I will be producing Six'd Off, a companion YouTube series showcasing each game.
@shanselman Speaking of Overload, here's something you may be interested in... recently, some community members released "Overload First Strike", a single player Overload campaign that is a complete remake of the original Descent First Strike campaign.
It can work with just the original game, but it works best with "olmod" as it takes advantage of some of the features it provides: https://olmod.overloadmaps.com
