Windows form designer default scope for controls.

I am building a number of 'base' forms which will be inherited in my
application. I would like to change the default scope from Friend to
'Protected Friend'. Is there a way to do this, or will I just have to edit
the Designer.vb file or change the 'Modifiers' property for each of the
controls?

TIA,

Select the controls in the designer and set their 'Modifiers' property to
the desired value.

Hi Herfried,
Thanks for the response. Too bad. It would be nice to be able to set
some sort of option to change the designer's default scope to something other
then 'Friend'.
