Is the size of a Form in Visual Studio designer limited to screen resolution?

Question

Why is it, that in the Visual Studio WinForms designer I cannot increase the size of my Form above the resolution of the screen I am currently working on? I think it should

I have found a work around for this issue. In my case I was needing a design time solution.

I found that using a multi display system with the desktop extended to each display, this effectively tells the system your max display is the combination of displays.

This is a work around and is a pain. Especialy for me while I was in the field with just a laptop.

Scaling at runtime is ok if you're targeting multiple systems. But if its just a single target system (one size display), then it is an unneeded overhead in design coding and runtime.

Microsoft should have realized this was a bad idea or at least given a choice to override this "design feature".
