WebUI 2016 R1 - Cannot Open WebGrid Designer
Posted: April 4, 2016 2:52 PM

Hi Erwin

Ok, have an update with this. On adding a WebTab to the same solution, when trying to view that Designer I received a different error. A dialog appeared stating that the control was missing from Visual Studio 2012 (even though I'm using 2015), but found this issue listed in the Community, but the resolution did not work.

However, by pure luck I decided to check for updates and indeed there were dated 31/03/2016. On installing this the issue with the webtab designer was then fixable by updating the Metro dll in the GAC. I then received this same error when viewing the WebGrid designer. Again, by pure chance I decided to create a new project, dragged the Grid control onto a page and voila, the designer worked. On going back to the original project, again, it now worked.

Can't explain what the issue was or how it was fixed, but seems to be intermittent as suddenly the WebTab designer failed again, so went to another project and dragged the control onto a page and again fixed.

Kind Regards
Jon

Hi Erwin

Yes, can confirm the Metro dll is in the GAC using GACUtil.

Hi Erwin

To confirm, I am using the full VS 2015 Professional edition with Update 1. And I have compared the assemblies in the GAC and they match version numbers, however only the ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.Editor.dll is present in the GAC from the WebGrid assemblies, does the ISNet.WebUI.WebGrid.Editor.Metro.dll need to be in there also?

Kind Regards
Jon

Hi Erwin

Thanks for the response. There are no error messages and subject to whether I have opened another designer, e.g. the WebCombo, I may see the brief Intersoft.ClientUI - Evaluation Version, splash screen appear, but on disappearing, the designer is not visible. I have tried alt+tab to see if the window is there like you can with the other designers but it isn't and does not appear in Task Manager.

Visual Studio behaves as if a designer is open in that you can no longer click into it, as per a Modal Dialog, so the only way out is to kill it via Task Manager.

If rather than choose WebGrid Designer in the right-click menu, I choose Advanced or Customize Element Styles instead, it actually crashes VS 2015 and looking at the event log I get the following .NET Runtime error, pics attached.

Hope this helps,
Kind Regards
Jon
