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

Answer 1

I found a dumb work-around that lets me view and use the larger form sizes in the design space.

I am working on a 1440x900 monitor for a 1240x1024 monitor, so can't reach the vertical component. What I did was simply right-click my desktop, change the resolution to 1240x1024, adjust the form size, and then change the resolution back. Upon changing back, it'll retain the given Form size, even is it's outside the acceptable limit.

The only issue this really poses is that if you want to run the Form in your first resolution, it'll be too large to view properly.

I know this is an old question, I figured I'd share what I'd found. The quick fix might help someone out there.
