‘-120’ is not a valid value for property ‘Width’.

Asked By CarlMatinez 0 points N/A Posted on - 08/14/2011

I have been trying to have a trend line that can be moved along with mouse drag. When I drag the mouse quickly, I get the following error message:

Microsoft Visual Studio

‘-120’ is not a valid value for property ‘Width’.

I have checked with the code again, to see for any mistakes but I am not able to find any. I have set a positive value for width property.

Please help.

Hi,

This is a common issue with Microsoft Visual Studio. It happens when a scroll viewer or auto-sizing of a grid between items drag, appears. The work around is just to play around with it. So, prevent not to scroll down more often because this is the source of the problem. This can be fix though but you'll need to have an upgraded version of Microsoft Visual Studio. The grid between items can be drag and drop.

This is not an issue, if you are using a service pack but I will give you the steps to do so.

A simple research on the Internet on what are the steps to fix the issue. There are numbers of available upgrade of this version. This is one of the solutions and it has steps and codes that you can check, see it as a reference and solutions to this error.
