Addin Property To a user_created Component

Question

Hi to all,

I've written a windows form control library. I've used it at my main desktop (form) application. But I can not see the properties I have added my control library !

The way to add property to a user_created component is possible with working on class view. But I can not make my properties shown in properties windows like other default controls (e.g Button)

Is there any solution for this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

is the new property public?

Answer 2

Any public property should appear in the propety designer, e.g.

    /// <summary>
    /// Number Format
    /// </summary>
    [Category("Formatting"), DefaultValue("#,##0"), Description("Formatting string for numbers")]
    public string NumberFormat { get; set; }

The attributes set how it is displayed in the property grid and are all part of the System.ComponentModel namespace
