Hi there
I have a Propertygrid in a C# project that has a number of IP addresses
displayed.
What I would like to do is to a) Edit them in-place as the 4 octets, ie
edit them as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx possibly using the IPControl, and b) validate
them on losing focus in the editing area.
I've done a lot of googling, and frankly, I am now confused!
Can anyone please point me as to how to do what I want. I'm not an expert in
C#, but have done some work using it
Thanks in advance!

Hugh,
AFAIK, you won't be able to change the control in the property grid to
be an IPControl. The best you could do is have an IPControl in a drop down
that the grid exposes for you, or a dialog that the grid pops up for you.
You might be able to create a custom class which exposes the four octets
of the IP address and then expose that on the object that you are placing
the IP addresses in. Then, you would be able to expand the object and edit
the individual octets in the grid.

Thanks Nicholas, not the answer I was hoping for, but certainly the answer I
was expecting.
Wouldn't it be nice if the PropertyGrid had the ability to hook different
controls in :-)

Depending on your budget, there are 3rd-party tools that might help,
such as VisualHint. I evaluated this one a while ago and was quite
impressed, but the project scope changed and it became unnecessary. http://www.visualhint.com/index.php/propertygrid/

Hello Hugh,
First of all, Marc, thanks a lot for the kind words. I must add that
in the next release of Smart FieldPackEditor , there is a new ip
address inplace editor for Smart PropertyGrid.
Hugh, if a commercial product is an option for you I recommend you to
try the demos of both products. You may find that this is exactly what
you need.
Best regards,

I am using the PropertyGrid and I have set the SelectedObject property to

is a bitmap.
The PropertyGrid lets me assign a bitmap ok, but when I want to delete it,
I cannot do it.
For example, in Visual Studio when you set the background image for a form,
you can highlight it and press delete to clear the property. But for my

hello,
i'm currently using a PropertyGrid to monitor the properties of some

I managed to write the code for that and it works. However, I would like the
numerical value displayed in the propertygrid to be updated as I slide the
track bar (for now the value changes when the...

Hi,
Two questions about PropertyGrid:
1. How can I achieve that one value in a PropertyGrid is treated as a
Password (like TextBox.PasswordChar behaviour) ?
2. If you edit a TabControl in VS.Net there is a section in the Properties
Window in which you have two links to add and remove a TabPage (above the
description). How can this be done?

Simple imaginary problem:

4) I want this dialog box to be launched from the "..." custom editor button
of a property grid.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
