Add a Property for a UserControls
-
Hello all and Happy new Year :) I have a UserControl which contains a Label and a TextBox and I want to set the Label's Text in my main form. I know I can get a string as parameter in UC's constructor or define the Label, publicly. But I wonder if I can set the Text in Design mode. I mean is there any way to add a property for my UC so when I open Properties tab I can see that and change its value? I hope I could explain well. Thanks a lot :)
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as plant and rose to animal, I died as animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying? -- Rumi[^] My blog

Actually I didn't know from where I should start. I tried constructor but I have error adding UC in my windows form. I defined the Label publicly but I could only access the Label this way:
UserControl.Label. I searched MSDN for Property and Attribute but I couldn't find anything yet. Thanks for replyI died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as plant and rose to animal, I died as animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying? -- Rumi[^] My blog

You can override the Text property of the usercontrol so as to set the entered text into the label. Something like what is given below. [Browsable(true)] public override string Text { set { label1.Text = value; } } This will let you set the text in design time.

:( I created two instances of my UC in my Form and when I change the Text value of one of them, both will change! I wrote code below:
[Browsable(true)]
public string LabelText
{
get { return label1.Text; }
set { label1.Text = value; }
}I couldn't understand what is the problem, do you have any idea?

How is the label1 defined in your UC, is it static or any other reasons why it could be shared along the instances?
The need to optimize rises from a bad design.My articles[^]
Solved Mika and Member 4470354, I think I was changed PropertyBinding, DatBinding or I don't know, something similar... :laugh: I reset the values. Thank you both.
