[visual Basic, 2019]
Hello all.
I'm new to this forum, so smack me, if I do something stupid.
I have made a control, that I don't want to be a parent to other controls of its own class.
I know how to do this at runtime, but not how to achieve this during designTime.
By adding a ParentDesigner with the Function CanbeParentedto(), I can stop controls being dragged on my control from the form.
(a forbid-icon appears, and the dragged control is not added to my control)
But controls dropped from the Toolbox, are still being parented.
How can I prevent this?
Thank in advance for any suggestions...

Return False

End If
