[Gtk-sharp-list] Odpowiedź: Monodevelop: unable to find gtk containers and widgets in toolbar pad

Hi,

may I suggest you to post this issue on the MonoDevelop mailing list as
you have access to the main MD experts there.

I'm also using MD and have experienced this kind of trouble. Please
check the file gtk-gui/objects.xml if it contains any errors. I've
experienced a very lousy issue: MD sometimes eats up this file or
portions of it. Then it's no longer possible to work on the GUI parts of
your project unless you restore the file from backup.

Kind regards
