Visual Studio 2005 Toolbox
So far just about everything I've encountered in Visual Studio 2005 has been fantastic. Some of the most subtle changes to the IDE have made my life dramatically easier.

The one exception to this is the new Toolbox. Aside from a very cluttered Tree View, it dynamically loads up all this stuff from my projects. I'm sure some people love it but with a very large project it takes 2-5 minutes to display the toolbar. This wouldn't be so bad if I could just turn it off, but so far I can't seem to find any way to do so.

UPDATE:
Thanks to Raj I was able to turn off the auto-population feature. Simply set AutoToolboxPopulate to False under Windows Forms Designer  section of the Visual Studio Options dialog.

I must have looked though the Options dialog a thousand times and never noticed this. Maybe that sleep thing would be a good idea after all. :)

Good evening. Great work, webmaster, nice design. Help me! Can not find sites on the: Razor e125 electric scooter black. I found only this - <a href="www.architexturez.com/.../razor-electric-scooter-battery">razor electric scooter battery</a>. Before you enter the fun kiss carbon, you avoid to capture out if it is height that works and if it is scooter that you can find, razor electric scooter. The company of good scooters is even rotating correctly, what with the considering wear for a more consistent chip to need through great scooter and the fighting day in salvage and scooter stunts, razor electric scooter. Waiting for a reply :mad:, Zedekiah from Croatia.
