Visual Studio stuck in code view

Question

I am currently trying to create a Windows Form Application where I need to see the WYSIWYG view, rather than the code view. I understand there are a lot of threads with potential fixes but everything I have tried doesn't work. I have tried clicking on it in the Solution Explorer and pressing F7 but it still just displays the code.

If someone could give me the answer or point me to a thread I have not found before with an answer, that would be great.

EDIT: Programming in C# not HTML

Answer 1

If you haven't run it yet and just created a bare class, the class itself should inherit Form from the System.Windows.Forms namespace.

using System.Windows.Forms;    

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
   public Form1()
   {
   }
}

You should be able to get into the designer once that's done.
