Add A Custom DropDown To The PropertyGrid For A Control?
Oct 7, 2009
I'm trying to add a custom DropDown to the PropertyGrid for a control. I am adding the TrackBar control.It works fine, except, I would like to have the values updated in the PropertyGrid as I move the TrackBar. As it is now, it only updates the PropertyGrid when I finish and click off the TrackBar.I know the problem lies in the Type Editor. How can I get it to allow interim values to be processed. Is there some callback function I can use?

I have a custom control and have created some properties for it.When I click on that control, its properties are then shown in the PropertyGrid.The problem, is that I only want to show some of the predefined properties as well as my custom properties.Does anyone know how I can filter out the properties I want shown?
I have a custom control. I need to add a property, say, Comparison, to the control. The property should be set at design time using a dropdown. The Dropdown will have String values like '=','>','<' etc. I tried using Enum values and working perfectly but I need to do some extra coding to convert the Enum values to the string I required. It would be great if I can get the values from the dropdown so that I can directly use the selcted value.
I've created a custom user control that has several properties. One specifies which database I want the control to access. I want to be able to present the user of the control a drop down from which he can select which database the control will interact with. How do I get the dropdown to work? I can get default values, but have yet to figure out how to get the selectable list.
I've been following this article:and have everything working.Under the Support for Custom Types section, it introduces a collapsable type for the spell check options. The option are added together to produce a string that is displayed in the grid in the Spell Check Options row. Is it possible to get this string directly from the 'AppSettings' class or do I need to add another property and copy the code from the ConvertTo and ConvertFrom functions?
I am devloping a custom designer (like the form designer), which can be used to design custom controls at designtime (see spoiler for screenshot).The problem is that i want to show the propertyes of the currently selected object in the propertygrid window in VS, and i can not figure out how to do that.
I'm using a PropertyGrid to display properties of my custom object, but whenever I run the form and input stuff into the collection, it doesn't save... If I open up the CollectionEditor again, its blank.. heres my code
I put a PropertyGrid control and set the control to be a button on my form and i run it and change some properties and reflected on the button but when i restart the application nothing is saved so i have to save it to the disk like serialize the control is this the right thing?
Does anyone know of a way have the PropertyGrid control display a NumericUpDown instead of a DropDown box or text box? One of the properties that I need to capture is an integer and I'd like the user to be able to spin up or down to choose a value instead of typing it in.
I've populated a PropertyGrid with a custom class. How do you create and display a sub property similar to Size (Height, Width) which has two values or Point(X,Y)? For example, the class is Test and the property is Item as string. I want to expand Item to have two sub properties, A and B.
I have seen it somewhere ages ago but cannot find the link... I want to create a custom drop-down "property page" like the one that pops out when you click on the down arrow in the property grid to set the anchoring.
how to specify a custom icon for display in the toolbox window when you create your own custom control? Something other than the dreaded "gearbox" icon.
I have an ASPX Custom Control which is supposed to load it's properties into an internal collection (defined with PersistenceMode.InnerProperty). Here's the ASPX
I have a dropdown list control which when a particular item is selected, another dropdown's list is populated based on that selection. The code behind is below.
Imports System.IO Partial Class Data Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
I have around 60 dropdowns and textboxes on webform, have primary key column (QuoteNumber) too which is dropdown control and Auto-generated value. I have a button called AddQuote when I click this button QuoteNumber should be autogenerated in database and same should be loaded into QuotNumber drop down, how can I achieve that.
i am using a third party tool "lookupedit control" which is similar to a combobox. as we type in the address bar of our browser we get the related items in the dropdown of the address bar. eg: if e type go we get all the items starting from go in the drop down of the address bar. I want to implement the same functionality for lookupedit or a combobox.
I am using custom textboxes and I need to be able to set the Text on txb1 based on the Text of txb2. I have simplied my code to the following:
Public Class customtextbox Inherits TextBox Public Event ControlReset()
[Code]....
So, when txb1 looses focus, if its Text is "fried", then it sets off txb2's ProcessAlert function. I had tried to change the value of txb2 Text in ProcessAlert function, but didnt work, so I tried to get it to raise an event instead, which then tries to set the Text property. However I still cant set txb2's Text property. The Text property seems to be set for the duration of the "life" of the Event handler. When I step through the forms controls within the Event handler, the changed Text value is there, but not outside of the Event handler.
I want to find the values from a number of dropdown controls inside a repeater control. I eventually want to build a multidimensional array, so I can loop through each item and add them to a database table.
I need to use the WebBrowser control to set an item in a dropdown list. Given the HTML snippet below how to I pick a specifcate option to be submited using HtmlElement techniques? (VB, VS2005) I'm able to send texboxes, just can't figure out how to deal with dropdowns.
The bottom line on a dropped-down datetimepicker shows the date different then in the text-part.In my case, the text-part format was yyyy/mm/dd, but the bottom part of the dropped down part stated Today: dd/mm/yyyy, what is probably the format set in the regional settings.
I have a GRIDVIEW with columns, one of which contains a CSV of possible values for the dropdown that must appear on each row.
Private Sub GridViewParameters_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridViewParameters.RowDataBound If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then[code].....
Depending on whether the type of control is a dropdown, textbox, or check box (feined in the table) it hides or shows the relevant control type. If it is a dropdown it needs to get its values from a CSV in a corresponding column. I have a SP that returns a these in table form if passed the id of the relevant row.How do I get that is from the gridview to pass to the drop down and load it correctly?
