Has this ever happen to any of you? My Ajax Tookit tab from the ToolBox menu just disappear in Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. I had to add it back which wasn't a big deal but I'd like to know how could this happen? I had also add another ToolBox tab which
disappear too.
I have had experiences where when working with large aspx files the markup would essentially not save its changes. In my case it was because I was moving from file to file too fast, and it was taking longer to save it than normal. I haven't had that problem
since I upgraded to a faster workstation and an SSD though :P
Oh it also helped that I cleared any residual files out, and deleted the temp files from the .NET framework directories.
The toolbox in VS 2010 is filtering out the Ajax Toolkit controls that are not applicable for the current project based on the framework the project is using. It will show the latest framework controls that are applicable to the project. For example, if
you have 3.5 and 4.0 Toolkit, then in a 3.5 project, it will show only 3.5 toolkit controls, but in a 4.0 project, it will show only 4.0 controls. If you have only 3.5 Toolkit, then both 3.5 and 4.0 projects will show 3.5 toolkit controls. Hope it's clear.
