I like having my forms open up in Design 9 View, but I made a partial class file which 8 had only code and Visual Studio wanted to 7 open it in Design View all the time. To 6 prevent Visual Studio from realizing that 5 a specific source file can be loaded by 4 Designer, look at the csproj file for the 3 Compile Include tag of the appropriate source 2 file and remove the SubType tag underneath 1 it.
