No Visual Inheritance in CF. I ran into the same problem
myself.

I would say do as much Visual Designer work as possible
on a Form before inheriting from another Form.

Not sure if this will be fixed in the next release.

Kind of a pain ... but what can you do?

There is visual inheritance. Just not in the designer.

Are you talking about using the designer, or runtime?

I can inherit from Forms just fine using the runtime with this code below:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public class Test : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
Button x;

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
x = new Button();
x.Parent = this;
x.Bounds = new Rectangle(10, 10, 150, 30);
x.Text = "click me";
x.Click += new EventHandler(this._Click);
}

private void _Click(object o, EventArgs e)
{
myForm2 form = new myForm2();
form.ShowDialog();
}

public static void Main()
{
Application.Run(new Test());
}
}

public class myForm : Form
{
public myForm()
{
this.Text = "myForm";
this.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
}
}

public class myForm2 : myForm
{
public myForm2()
{
this.Text = "myForm2";
this.BackColor = Color.Blue;
}
}

True. I'm doing plenty of Form inheritance ... I just
meant you can't use the visual designer on inherited
forms, so you should do your visual designer work before
inheriting another form.

Yes, we don't have support for design time with inherited forms in the
first release.

Thanks,
