Report Viewer 2010 TextBox Alignment Issue in Windows Form - winforms

I wonder why there's no 'justify' option in Report Viewer 2010. Available options are only Align Left, Center, and Align Right. I'm trying to figure out how to align the text box (justify) but I could not find any clues.
I see that Report Viewer also supports HTML rendering. I have tried that too using HTML text-align=justify, but it doesn't work. As well as TextBox, I have also tested using Tablix but no luck. I hope someone can help me figure this out.
FYI, I'm using Visual Studio 2010 SP1 with Report Viewer 2010 (.NET 4)

As far as I concerned justify is not supported by Microsoft Report Viewer. Some time ago we had to choose Crystal Reports to have justify possibility.

I am creating my first SSRS report in Visual Studio but I couldn't see any data when I preview. Am I doing anything wrong?
Try changing the font style and size, it should work, it worked for me.

VS WPF Designer Change Control Gap Guide

I have searched through all the settings but cannot find if this is possible.
Changing the gap guide warning in wpf designer. See the red area.
The defaults are good but in most situations I need to move them without guide to fit nicely on the view.
Designing would be a lot faster specially for a full-stack less designing-talent dude. :D
I don't have VS 2012 installed anymore but even so, I do not see a way to do this in the Visual Studio 2015 designer nor 2017.
But... Blend does have options to adjust the spacing. Under Tools -> Options -> XAML Designer -> Artboard.

Split 'designer' and 'source' windows on VS2017 Xamarin?

I'm starting to develop apps on Xamarin, with Visual Studio 2017. As on WPF, there is a 'designer' window for the axml, with the view of the app itself, and a 'source' window with the xml describing the view.
My question is - can I split the windows so one will be above the other, just like as in WPF? Right now I can either view the designer or the source window.
Below are the wanted situation, and the current one. Thanks!
As far as I know, there isn't support to achieve that in Xamarin.Android on Visual Studio 2017.
Event if you try to use the split view and place the design in your left side you can't put the source in your right.
I know it could be overkill but most of the times I use Android Studio to draw my layouts. Since it support viewing the source and designer.
The split view designer feature for Xamarin Android has finally been added in the VS 2017 version 15.8 update. Here is a link to the release notes.

Installed Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Second Edition - Add Visio Panel to Toolbox

I have installed Visual Studio 2005 for Office Second Edition.
I wish to embed a Visio diagram into my WinForms C# application. However, I don't have any new items in the toolbox.
I have searched Google but cannot resolve the issue myself.
VSTO is for a different thing (it's for creating Visio addins), it is, well, unrelated to what you are after.
There are two Visio controls you can use in your C# application: Visio Viewer control (allows you to view Visio drawing in a C# application), and Visio Drawing control (allows you to modify a Visio drawing in your C# application). To get them, you must have either Visio or Visio Viewer installed.
To get them in your toolbox:
Right click the toolbox -> Choose items..
In the "Choose toolbox items" dialog, select tab "COM components"
Select either "Microsoft Visio Drawing control" (drawing control) or "Visio Document" (viewer), click OK
Now you should get your control in the toolbox.
VSTO doesn't provide anything for that.
What you are looking for is called OLE, Object Linking and Embedding. Originally released in 1990, Microsoft Office was the last main Microsoft product that still supported it. Time has not been kind to OLE, the protocol was complicated and very hard to get right. Also very detrimental to program stability, you would not just import another program's windows and UI but all of its bugs as well.
Notable is that the .NET framework shipped without any support for it at all. Office 2007 was the last one that supported it but there were several nasty and unsolvable problems with it. DsoFramer was removed from the Microsoft servers just before Office 2010 beta was released.
This is gone forever and won't come back. Move forward by embedding your UI into the Office program, not the other way around. Very well supported in VS with its Office project templates. There are 3rd party products that support embedding a word processor or spreadsheet in your own program.

VS 2010 is missing CrystalReportViewer after Crystal is installed

I installed Crystal Reports for VS 13.0.2000 to work with VS 2010. I will need to use CR in a WinForm app.
To my utter surprise, I have no CrystalReportViewer in my VS Toolbox pane for WinForms. The CrystalReportViewer does show up in Toolbox for web forms though.
I could obviously add the viewer to my winform without using the toolbox, but I can not seem to figure out what do I need to reference to get it. I am already referencing all the usual dll's like CrystalReports.Engine and CrystalDecisions.Shared but it does not help.
Does anybody have any idea what I am missing?
You need to ensure that you're targeting the full framework, and not any subsets, such as the client profile
