[Bug]: Ribbon Controls 2022 demo app no longer works in the designer, and only shows with some core runtimes

[Smurf-IV]

Whilst investigating Krypton-Suite/Standard-Toolkit#1561... Using today's alpha branches of both toolkit and suite.

• Open ribbon Examples Dev (or nuget) in vs 2022 (17.10 or greater)
• Open Form designer of Ribbon Controls 2022

Expected:

• Designer: to see the controls due to it having net frameworks 46 onwards
• Runtime to see the controls

Actual:

• Designer is empty
• Only .net6 onwards runtime shows controls

Steps

• [x] Copy project to new directory
• [x] Create solution to hold just Controls projects
• [ ] Change to use canary nugets only and start to work backwards
• [x] Install VS 17.6 LTSC

Observations

• Rolled back to 90.23.12.352-beta and still not working
• Opened in VS 16.6 and still not working ??

Changes

• In Designer Change order of Panel in document outline
• Reload project in VS 17.6 and nuget 90.23.12.352-beta
  • Ribbon now visible and also visible in runtime of 48

Appears to be a "Panel Ordering" problem. Moving to Demos

The combo's in the middle are clipped ! And the Right side Theme combo has a Font Force set on it. (i.e. not the themes version)

View in Designer is fixed:

And also the RichTextBox is populated again ;-)
