User Control Properties - Finalize My Design Time Properties Grid
Apr 27, 2011I'm making a control and I am trying to finalize my design time properties grid. I have several List(of Class) items as public properties and when I click on the design time menu (while testing the control) there is the word "Collection" and a button with an ellipsis (...) that brings up a neat pop up with the buttons Add/remove and all of the public properties of the collection's class on the right hand side. Basically for a non-collection instance of a class (with public properties) I'd like a similar button to show up. I know I could put all of the properties in the main control class and group them, but I like the pop up box feature. Anyway to duplicate this? (think font grid item etc.)

Inheritance A Classic React Class Into A User Control To Add The Hight And Width Properties To The Control?
Feb 28, 2011I tried it and get an error but maybe I'm tring the wrong way. Can a usercontrol inherate an application defined class ie.. could you inheritance a classic rect class into a user control to add the hight and width properties to the control without having to do all the coding all over again? Currently I just declair a private instance of the class within the control and then encapsalate. It would be nice if I could just inherit all the functionality of my classes into controls designed to implament the classes.

Jan 27, 2012I've created a user control that is basically a Panel that contains 1 label,3 TextBoxes and a few properties that set/get some short integer values.During a form load event I display a number of these Panels.I then access the Panels name (and other panel properties) via a user-created handler for the panel's click eventHowever I would really like to access the values from the user-control's properties.

DataGridView Properties Through User Control?
Sep 20, 2011I've built a custom user control in VS2010, incorporating two datagridviews, and asplitpanel - The idea is that there is a "Main" datagridview control, and the second is an internally controlled grid that (when shown) displays the Columns which are set as invisible. This allows the user to drag the columns onto the main grid, in order to display the columns.This all works fairly well. I've set the modifiers property on the Main DataGridView to public, so that by and large, the developers can make use of the control just like a normal DGV (albeit with an extra level to the code).
I've also created dummy events for each of the events that the DGV normally raises, and pass them through the usercontrol, so that the developers can attach to the DGV events as normal. Again, this appears to work fine.Unfortunately, I've run into a problem. I'm trying to set the RowSizeMode to DisplayedCells (or indeed any value). If I try it in the designer, it appears to retain the change until I run the application, after which the property reverts back to normal.

User Control With Other Controls As Properties
Jan 18, 2012In my asp.net 4.0 application I have a standard set of tabs controls across the application that has one tab for Search, one for View and one for Reporting.I am in the process of updating those tabs and I was hoping to be able to wrap their functionality up into a single user control since they all function in pretty much similar ways. The issue I am having is how to create a property called SeacrhTab/ViewTab/ReportTab that allows me to assign a different user control to it depending on the area of the application (e.g. CompanySearchControl, ContactSearchControl, etc.) Anyone ever tried to accomplish something similar?

View 8 RepliesUser Control With Simple Textbox - Custom Properties
Oct 15, 2011I've created a user control with a simple text box and a corresponding label and added a few custom control properties. When added to a form, I'm trying to loop through all control of this type and evaluate the custom property. In the below, the cntl.MyCustomProperty is not recognized. I can evaluate the property when I check each user control on the form by name, but not by using the loop below. I would much rather use the loop as it is much cleaner.
For Each cntl As Control In Me.Controls
If (TypeOf cntl Is MyUserControl) And cntl.MyCustomProperty = "ABC" Then
''Do some stuff
End If

View 2 RepliesAccess Properties Of Controls On A Programatically Created User Control .NET?
Nov 19, 2011After taking a few years off from programming, I decided to start learning vb.net. I have created a user control that contains a picture box. I added some custom properties to the picture box that will hold general string data from a database.
My problem is that the user control is programatically created during run time, and during this time a DoubleClick event handler is added for the picture box that is within the user control.
I need to be able to set the custom properties for the picture box during the creation of the user control, so that when the control (picture box) is double clicked I can read these values but am unsure on how to access them.
The picture box is the entire size of the user control, or I would just add the custom properties right to the user control and add the DoubleClick event handler to that. However, double clicking needs to be done on the picture box since it takes up the entire user control, unless anyone has an idea to trigger the DoubleClick event of the user control when the picture box is double clicked.

View 1 RepliesDeclare Properties/Events Such As IsPostBack/Init On An Interface That A User Control Will Implement?
May 2, 2012I'm having trouble porting some .NET2-era C# to .NET2-era VB.NET. Specifically, I am trying to define an interface that an ASP.NET user control will implement.(For background, I am trying to re-implement Phil Haack's Model-View-Presenter example from several years ago: http://haacked.com/archive/2006/08/09/ASP.NETSupervisingControllerModelViewPresenterFromSchematicToUnitTestsToCode.aspx)
The C# interface I'm working from defines properties and events (IsPostBack, Load) that are already implemented by the base control.However, VB.NET is forcing me to explicitly implement these properties/events in the user control (Public Property IsPostBack() As Boolean Implements IView.IsPostBack...). I'd like to just define these in the interface and not have to do anything special in the code-behind of the implementing user control.I'm assuming that I can do this in VB.NET, I just don't know how. I've spent all sorts of time googling/bing-ing, and haven't come up with the answer.
.net - Listing Properties / Checking If A Property Is ReadOnly
Nov 26, 2009I'm faced with a couple of problems in VB.net: I have a series of objects, which properties I'm displaying in a grid for the user to edit. My first problem is: how do I get a list of all the properties of an object? Is it even possible? The datagrid control that I'm using accepts string values with the name of the property as parameters, but inserting them manually would be a real problem, because there are a LOT of them. So: is there a way to get a list of strings with the name of each property of an object?
If that's possible, here comes the second question: Now, of course, since users are editing the properties, I'm not interested in showing ReadOnly properties which they cannot edit. Hence my secodn problem: is there a way to check if a property is readonly at runtime?
