UserControl Property Grid

[margelos]

I have created the following usercontrol

public class RegisterUser : TemplatedWebCon trol {
private VisFields _vfields = new VisFields();
public VisFields VisibleFields {
get { return _vfields; }
set { _vfields = value; }
}

private bool _showit;
public bool ShowIt {
get { return _showit; }
set { _showit=value;}
}

public RegisterUser() : base() {
}
VisFields is a custom class that has properties of boolean
[TypeConverter(t ypeof(VisFields Converter)), Description("Se lect Visible
Fields")]
public class VisFields {
private bool _firstQuestion;
private bool _secondQuestion ;

[DefaultValue(tr ue)]
public bool FirstQuestion {
get { return _firstQuestion; }
set { _firstQuestion = value; }
}

[DefaultValue(tr ue)]
public bool SecondQuestion {
get { return _secondQuestion ; }
set { _secondQuestion = value; }
}

}

if have of also implemented VisFieldConvert er
public class VisFieldsConver ter : ExpandableObjec tConverter {
..
..
..
}

When i drag and drop the control into my webpage, and click on the
property grid, i see the (VisibleFields) property and i can expand it
and see its properties (FirstQuestion, SecondQuestion) . I can change
them to true/false, but when i switch to source of design mode, or even
when i run the page, these properties always have their default value.
So the problem is that the control CAN'T keep the changes i make from
design mode. Any ideas??

If you want to keep the values in the properties, you should use ViewState
for that.

public bool SecondQuestion {
get {
if(ViewState["SecondQuestion "] != null)
return
Convert.ToBoole an(ViewState["SecondQuestion "]);
return true;
}
set { ViewState["SecondQuestion "] = value; }
}
It works fine. :)
