Refer to childs of user control.Hello.
In VB.NET 2008 : I created a user control. The user control has label (one of its components). I want : When using the final user control by the IDE, I shall be able to pick up the label control alone, make events on it, or change the label text. How can I do that ? Thanks :) Am 15.04.2010 00:25, schrieb Mr. X.:

After compiling, open the Form and select teh Usercontrol. The label appears in the list of properties. Expand it to change it's properties. You have to use the AddHandler statement to handle the label's events. -- Armin I need to see the label's event directly via the IDE.
(I want to be able to make a user control - built it, put it on the my form, and see some of the inner elements of the controls, and be able to see their events and properties on the IDE). How can I do that ? Any other way ? (like populate all the properties and events of the inner control, to the main user control - but if there are 100 properties, I.e ?)

You have to type "Addhandler MyUsercontrol1.MyLabel." and have intellisense list the events. (BTW, I'v never used the events view in the properties window) -- Armin Sorry for my bad English.
I meant on design time, and not on runtime. If there is no other choice I shall use Addhandler.

Look at menuStrip control. When putting it on form on design time, there are inner item elements, that can be shown too (with events ...) That's kind of behavior, that I want to.

There are some user-control, as just for example : MenuStrip, that has MenuStripItem, which I can click on MenuStripItem, and change its properties and events. I thought that's I can build my own user control, and at the same way change the inner controls at design time. Can I do that (at the same way MenuStrip could do that) ? Thanks :) Am 16.04.2010 10:37, schrieb Mr. X.:

Never noticed that, because, as I said, I never use the events in the propertieswindow, and the only event of interest with a MenuStripItem is the click event, and that one is created when I double-click on it. But that's just me. You are absolutely right. Well, it's the MenuStrip designer that works that way. The Usercontrol designer doesn't. > I thought that's I can build my own user control, and at the same way change As I've already carefully tried to express: No, you can't do that. :-)> the inner controls at design time. > Can I do that (at the same way MenuStrip could do that) ? I guess the reason is that a Usercontrol should encapsulate all it's functunality in most cases, and there's not sufficient request for the remaining cases. Ddon't know. Maybe someone knows how to extend the IDE with such a feature. Look if it's already been requested. If not, you can do it: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ -- Armin O.K.
I created a class object, with properties. Add the class to toolbar. I didn't check the whole functionality (I created also a b = button, and did b.parent = parent, but didn't see it on form). It seems I can control the behavior, and not persist using userControl. Problem was solved partially.
