Missing Class

Note: System.Windows.Forms.Design.TextBoxDesigner does not exist, all though it is being referred to by the Designer attributed of System.Windows.Forms.TextBox.

I am here seeking it to determine the SnapLine values that provide the bottom margin for Text in TextBox Control (since I can't find the info anywhere else and my lastest attempts are fruitful).
