How to find the Control that I added to Form?

I've simply added a control to my form and now I can't even see it on the form. But it is still there. How can I find it?

Solution 1:

In situations that it is not possible to simply click on design surface and select your control, you can select your control using either of these options:

Document Outline Window

You can open Document Outline Window using menu View → Other Windows → Document Outline Also using Ctrl+Alt+T shortcut.

The Document Outline is most useful when you need to put design focus on controls that are deeply embedded within other controls, or that might be hard to select using a mouse or the TAB key.

• View the logical structure of a Form or a UserControl.
• Put user input focus on deeply nested controls that may be hard to select on the Form itself or the UserControl itself.
• Move controls from one parent to another parent.
• Locate controls that may be visually hidden by other controls.

Propertie Window

You can open Propertie Window using menu View → Properties Window Also using F4 shortcut.

You can select the control form the drop-down which contains all controls.

Solution 2:

Or use the Document Outline window. You can also drag your controls here if they were accidentally misplaced or if you want to change the order of the docked controls.
