StandaloneBarDockControl causes a form to be modified without any changes at design time

created 9 years ago

Hi.
Not a big issue but I've seen that as soon as I open a specific form with a bunch of controls on it using the forms designer, it shows always as modified.
I attach a simple project. Please open its form in design mode and you'll see how the upper Undo dropdown shows two Size changes and the file tab has an asterisk.
I think is the combination of AutoSize and Dock, but comparing pre and post saving versions of the Designer.vb file, they are exactly the same.

Not a real problem for simple forms but kind of annoying when you have a 'delicate' form with near 400 controls which refreshes itself every time you save. You feel better if you know that 'modified' means 'modified by you'.
Thank you.
Regards.
