title: Visual Studio Designer is always trying to change my control
body: <p>I have a somewhat complex UserControl, and Visual Studio 2008 is giving me a rather harmless annoyance when working with it.  Every single time I open the control with the Designer, it decides to immediately change some of the harmless values set by the designer - namely the initialization of Size properties.  If I save those changes, close, and reopen, it almost invariably ends up deciding another component of my control needs its initial size changed, ad infinitum.  Luckily these changes are harmless since I'm using automatic sizing everywhere, but this is quite annoying to work with.  I haven't the foggiest on where to start figuring out what's going wrong, my only thought right now is that the Designer is assigning the results of auto-sizing back into the initial size fields every time I open the control.  Any ideas on causes/fixes?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Also, I am using Application Settings to save sizes of certain resizable child components across runs of the application, but I really hope the Designer is smart enough to understand that it should only ever be using the defaults.  </p>
