Component Authoring

[draco_iii]

While creating a web component I ran into a problem with setting the properties for the Designer Property Pages. One of my Properties can only be Top,Bottom,Left, or Right. I want these in a listbox on the property pages. I have hunted for a way to do this, but I have been unable to find anything remotely close to the subject.

class MyClass
{
public enum Sides
{
Top, Bottom, Left, Right
}

private Sides sides;

....

[Browsable(true)]
public Sides Sides
{
get
{
return sides;
}
set
{
sides = value;
}
}

...
}

Maybe I just didn't understand the question, because it sounds like you have something similar to this already. James "It is self repeating, of unknown pattern" Data - Star Trek: The Next Generation

I wanted to thank you so very much. That was right on target, I had something very similar, but was missing the "enum" contructions that allowed it to work properly. Again, thank you very much, I searched for hours yesterday, but to no avail.
