    Please elaborate on your code, as in this similar question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6683255/the-designer-could-not-be-shown-for-this-file-because-none-of-the-classes-within – manglano Apr 30 '16 at 19:39

    The designer is quirky. Is your form the *first* class in the file? IIRC the designer can't deal with it otherwise. You should post some code, at least the structure of classes in your files. – Lucas Trzesniewski May 01 '16 at 10:57
  • Designer also requires a parameterless constructor. Yes, please post some code. – Bob C May 02 '16 at 14:45
  • Is it VS 2015? Check your settings: `text editor` > `c/c++` > `browsing/navigation` > `disable external dependencies folder`. Isn't it `true` by chance? I spent a few days trying to understand why my form editor would refuse to open a form, this turned out to be the cluprit for me. I set it to `false` and it works now. – sunny moon Sep 18 '16 at 19:57
