The designer loader did not provide a root component but has not indicated why when opening a form

[Ricardo Abranches]

Hello,

when I try to open a form this error appears "The designer loader did not provide a root component but has not indicated why when opening a form"

Normally closed the form and then opening it again shows.

But now it doesn't open anymore. this form is of the type "Ribbon.form"

Is there any way to try to solve the problem?

The application works without problems and compiles without error.

It is just not possible to see the form on the screen in design mode and add objects, change properties, etc.

Any help would be welcome.

thanks

Hi Ricardo, 

 

Thank you for using Syncfusion controls. 

 

This is a common and known MS Visual Studio issue. One of the ways to solve this problem is to simply delete files in the bin/debug, bin/release, obj/debug, and obj/release directories in Solution Explorer and then start debug again.  

The issue might also occur when the properties defined in the Designer.cs depend on the runtime or due to event handles or overriding methods.
