Is there an easy way to add additional controls to the toolbox, such as folder browser. I can add these to the form via Code, but would much rather add them visually.

Since some controls are not compatible we must programmatically add in any new controls. But if there is a standard control you would like to see added, we can investigate it.

Thank you,

The folder browser is the one that I'm hurting without.

We looked into adding the FolderBrowserDialog and it requires that the script runs in STA (Single Threaded Apartment) mode. Basically this means that the Browser will only work correctly when you package the script in STA mode and run it from the executable.

The latest service build includes the FolderBowserDialog, but it will display a warning about having to use the "STA Mode" Packager Setting.
