Hi,
   i'm using Visual Studio 2008 with SP1 and Telerik Controls fro WinForms Q3 2008 SP2 and i have problems with the Element Hierarchy editor on a form: on every RADControl i chose to 'Edit UI elements' the Editor window appears, but when i move from root node to another node the window disappear and Visual Studio starts to show the message in object (RootRadElement cannot be converted to type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control') and i must restart the IDE. Any suggestion to resolve this problem? i cannot work in this manner....

This is the .Designer.cs files generated from VS

Hi francesco,

Thank you for your feedback. We managed to reproduce the problem and I have updated your Telerik points for the report.

We will need more time to research the reason for the crashing of the UI Editor, however deleting the context menu components below the form seems to fix the issue.
 

Kind regards,
