Testing a Windows Form @ design time

Hi All,

When you're working on a dialog under the resource view for a Windows Desktop Application/C++ you can any time test your dialog at design time simply clicking Ctrl+T.
There is no need to build the project and run it.

I tried to find the same feature for a Windows Form/C# but I had any luck.
Is there such a feature available?

Thanks

    Hi @C V , Welcome to Microsoft Q&A.

    Windows Form/C# has no such shortcut.

    You could only build the project to run it.

    Best Regards,
    Jiale
