Widgets do not appear in designer when running Visual Studio Express 2013 in VirtualBox on Mac OS X
When running Visual Studio Express 2013 in Windows 8.1 in VirtualBox on Mac OS X, you may find that widgets are not appearing in the designer.

This seems to be due to a bug in the VirtualBox's video driver. In order to resolve this, first the VM you are using must not currently be running. Go to your Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager, select the VM you are using and then press Settings. Select the Display tab. In Video -> Extended Features, uncheck Enable 3D Acceleration.
