Not really a development question. Are you using Visual Studio? Then it is about using of Visual Studio and possible defect in it and/or its settings. Did you try to re-install it?
By the way, you should not move your control. You should better dock everything adjust location using parent Padding.

Probably, it's just a glitch in Visual Studio - if you can't move controls at design time with the mouse, but you can with the keyboard it means they aren't docked to anywhere or contained within other controls.

So shut down VS and restart it - glitches like this often go away that way!

shut down VS means that close it or by other way???

OriginalGriff 24-Jul-14 1:56am

Yes - close all instances and give it a few seconds to unload all components before restarting it.

If this fixes it, but the problem comes back then you need to look at what you did in the run up to the problem occurring. (But I still haven't sussed out why the text editor will stop showing changes but applies then to the source file from time to time...) :laugh:

I close it and then restart but ot fixed the problem
even I resest all setting of visual studio, but no thing change.

OK - close it, open a new instance and create a new project.
Do you get the same problem?

And how exactly did you reset the VS settings?

for reset setting: toole menu -> import and export setting -> reset all setting
