Toolbox overlaps Form Designer in visual studio


I'm having a problem trying to move the design form window in visual studio, Picture here The designing window is on the top left, The reason is the space, another picture is here As you see, When I open the toolbox, It doesn't let me view the window anymore, while there is a huge unused space, It'd be really great if I can move the designing form to use all of the space I have on my monitor

I have tried googling a lot for this problem, I haven't found any problems matching to mine, It might be a very stupid simple thing, But I have no idea, or at least I googled unmatching keywords to the other people that had the same problem


Solution

  • Click the fixed key to dock the toolbox pane so it doesn't overlap the form designer.

    Or as @Jimi said, drag and drop the toolbox pane somewhere else.

    If you accidentally close it, you can find it in view->toolbox
