            this.toolStrip1.SuspendLayout();
            this.SuspendLayout();
            // 
            // toolStrip1
            // 
            this.toolStrip1.Items.AddRange(new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem[] {
            this.toolStripButton1});
            this.toolStrip1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);
            this.toolStrip1.Name = "toolStrip1";
            this.toolStrip1.TabIndex = 0;
            this.toolStrip1.Text = "toolStrip1";
            // 
            // toolStripButton1
            this.toolStripButton1.AutoToolTip = false;
            this.toolStripButton1.DisplayStyle = System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItemDisplayStyle.Text;
            this.toolStripButton1.Name = "toolStripButton1";
            this.toolStripButton1.Text = "Button1";
            this.toolStripButton1.ToolTipText = "ToolTip for Button1.";
            // Form1
            // 
            this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(292, 273);
            this.Controls.Add(this.toolStrip1);
            this.Name = "Form1";
            this.toolStrip1.ResumeLayout(false);
            this.ResumeLayout(false);
            this.PerformLayout();
