Problems with dockingManager and commandBarController in design mode

Hi, I’m currently developing an application using Essential Tools. I''m using the XPTaskPane, commandBars and other controls. When I’m working with the docking manager and command bars in design mode it really looks ugly, I can''t see much of the command bars and all controls attached to the docking manager leaves "holes" in de IDE (I can see the background). If I work in code mode it works ok but it''s hard to see the layout. Does anybody else have the same experience? I would be grateful for all help I can get. (I''m using Visual Studio 2003 and Essential Tools 1.6.1.8) Regards Mario
