I want to display in my application a PropertyGrid showing only the
"Appearance" of a control (ie. textBox) so the user can change it.
Bare with me, I'm new in Dotnet VB.

Where do I go from:
me.PropertyGrid1.SelectedObject = me.Textbox1;

Thank a lot
 
Hi Nicolas
Where do I go from:
me.PropertyGrid1.SelectedObject = me.Textbox1;
Click to expand...
Hi x
I think something like this
\\\
Dim myTextbox As New TextBox
myTextbox.Width = 100
myTextbox.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(4, 18)
me.propertyGrid1.Controls.Add(myTextbox)
///
I hope this helps a little bit?

Hi Nicolas,

I do not believe the PropertyGrid control exposes any method/property to
restrict property selection to a certain category. If it's important that
you restrict the property grid, then you *may* have to write your own
control (the only difficulty there will be displaying the items, enumerating
properties of an object is easy).

Hi Cor, thank you, but this is not the things I'm looking for
It has to do with ICustomTypeDescription and all that stuff so I can access
the property of the textbox through a PropertyGrid and alter the backcolor
etc... in the Appearance Category. I only want to see the Appearence.
 
Hi Tom.
It was difficult for me what was ment, but because of newby I thougth this
could be the question.
It was wrong, can happen :-))
