As stated above there is missing API (DesignTime API?) which would tell the designer whether it should paint the so called design border around certain components or not. The designer can't decide based on the element structure only, as tries the original implementation. In order to show the border around fragments, panels, etc., it tries to find out based on the element structure. But that can't work (unless it is checked and made more complicated every time new component is added). To solve it once and forever, the API (hint) for the component is necessary instead of trying to create some kind of heuristic logic in the designer, there is just not enough information. Passing back. |
