[MonoDevelop] RE:Windows Forms Designer in MonoDevelop

[Tom Potts]

I haven't checked out stetic properly but as I understand it this is how 
it should work:
All 'graphical' objects should expose certain properties and methods so 
that the designer merely has to ask the object how to display it 
,maximum /minimum size, C# code prototypes etc so that it can be used in 
the designer. As far as I can tell this is how VStudio works - this 
means you can use more or less the same designer for Windows or Web 
forms - *if its not then theres a huge duplication of effort!*
If stetic has used the same methods/properties as used by the 
Windows.Forms objects then it should be possible to 'point' stetic at 
the appropriate (Managed.Forms) library and it should be able to work 
out how to display/edit and code for them - *if its not then theres a 
huge duplication of effort!
