Is there an easy way to exit designtime mode in runtime and switch back to
designtime?

Thanks in advance.

Can you provide a little more context on what you're trying to do?

I'm writing some kind of scada program. My program has a configuration mode
(which is used to place controls on a form) and an operational mode. When tmy
program starts up, you're always working in operational mode (the user can
use the mouse in order to generate events on the controls). When he wants to
move a control to another place, he needs to go to configuration mode (design
view). So, my question is if it is possible to switch between design view and
"runtime"-view. In order to activate the designer, you'll need to call the
IDesignerHost.Activate method, but there isn't an Deactivate method?

Thanks in advance
