PropertyGrid.PropertySort Property

Definition

Gets or sets the type of sorting the PropertyGrid uses to display properties.

public:
 property System::Windows::Forms::PropertySort PropertySort { System::Windows::Forms::PropertySort get(); void set(System::Windows::Forms::PropertySort value); };
public System.Windows.Forms.PropertySort PropertySort { get; set; }
member this.PropertySort : System.Windows.Forms.PropertySort with get, set
Public Property PropertySort As PropertySort

Property Value

One of the PropertySort values. The default is Categorized or Alphabetical.

Exceptions

The assigned value is not one of the PropertySort values.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates initializing a PropertyGrid control using the PropertySort, ToolbarVisible properties. In addition, this example sets the PropertyGrid control's Visible property to false so the grid will not be visible when the example is run. To run this example paste the following code in a form and call the InitializePropertyGrid method from the form's constructor or Load event-handling method. To view the property grid when the form is running, change the grid's Visible property to true, recompile, and rerun the form.

   // Declare a propertyGrid.
internal:
   PropertyGrid^ propertyGrid1;

private:

   // Initialize propertyGrid1.
   [PermissionSetAttribute(SecurityAction::Demand, Name="FullTrust")]
   void InitializePropertyGrid()
   {
      propertyGrid1 = gcnew PropertyGrid;
      propertyGrid1->Name = "PropertyGrid1";
      propertyGrid1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 185, 20 );
      propertyGrid1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 150, 300 );
      propertyGrid1->TabIndex = 5;
      
      // Set the sort to alphabetical and set Toolbar visible
      // to false, so the user cannot change the sort.
      propertyGrid1->PropertySort = PropertySort::Alphabetical;
      propertyGrid1->ToolbarVisible = false;
      propertyGrid1->Text = "Property Grid";
      
      // Add the PropertyGrid to the form, but set its
      // visibility to False so it will not appear when the form loads.
      propertyGrid1->Visible = false;
      this->Controls->Add( propertyGrid1 );
   }

// Declare a propertyGrid.
internal PropertyGrid propertyGrid1;

// Initialize propertyGrid1.
private void InitializePropertyGrid()
{
    propertyGrid1 = new PropertyGrid();
    propertyGrid1.Name = "PropertyGrid1";
    propertyGrid1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(185, 20);
    propertyGrid1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(150, 300);
    propertyGrid1.TabIndex = 5;

    // Set the sort to alphabetical and set Toolbar visible
    // to false, so the user cannot change the sort.
    propertyGrid1.PropertySort = PropertySort.Alphabetical;
    propertyGrid1.ToolbarVisible = false;
    propertyGrid1.Text = "Property Grid";

    // Add the PropertyGrid to the form, but set its
    // visibility to False so it will not appear when the form loads.
    propertyGrid1.Visible = false;
    this.Controls.Add(propertyGrid1);
}

'Declare a propertyGrid.
Friend WithEvents propertyGrid1 As PropertyGrid

'Initialize propertyGrid1.
Private Sub InitializePropertyGrid()
    propertyGrid1 = New PropertyGrid
    propertyGrid1.Name = "PropertyGrid1"
    propertyGrid1.Location = New Point(185, 20)
    propertyGrid1.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(150, 300)
    propertyGrid1.TabIndex = 5

    'Set the sort to alphabetical and set Toolbar visible
    'to false, so the user cannot change the sort.
    propertyGrid1.PropertySort = PropertySort.Alphabetical
    propertyGrid1.ToolbarVisible = False
    propertyGrid1.Text = "Property Grid"

    ' Add the PropertyGrid to the form, but set its
    ' visibility to False so it will not appear when the form loads.
    propertyGrid1.Visible = False
    Me.Controls.Add(propertyGrid1)

End Sub

Remarks

When you set the PropertySort property, the appearance of the property sort buttons on the grid changes to reflect the current state of the property. Setting PropertySort to PropertySort.NoSort causes the properties to be displayed in the order they were retrieved.

Setting PropertySort to both Alphabetical and Categorized is the same as setting PropertySort to Categorized alone. The categorized view is always shown as alphabetical.

Note

To do custom sorting, implement ICustomTypeDescriptor on the component to return the properties in the desired order.
