Ch. 13/14 creating own custom controls...problem..

In chapter 13 when you create your own custom control "MyControl" ,
mine doesn't get added underneath the Windows Forms Toolbox. I followed the book's example and it still doesn't get added.

So I skipped to chapter 14 where you write your own graphics, and it does the same thing. After I created the class PaintCanvas, it didn't show up on Windows Forms Toolbox.

I don't know why it's not showing up. Any help will be appreciated.

I mean the control PaintCanvas, not class. Sorry.

In order for the control to show up in the toolbox you will need to compile your control project.
