DesignTimeVisibleAttribute marks a component's visibility. If Yes is present, a visual designer can show this component on a designer.

public ref class DesignTimeVisibleAttribute sealed : Attribute

[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Interface)]
public sealed class DesignTimeVisibleAttribute : Attribute

[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Class | System.AttributeTargets.Interface)>]
type DesignTimeVisibleAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute

Remarks

The DesignTimeVisibleAttribute is a hint to the Designer. The Designer will ignore this attribute for components that have a UI presence. It can only be applied to classes.

The DesignTimeVisibleAttribute is most useful when you have a control that accepts child components. For example, the System.Windows.Forms.TreeView control's node items should not appear in the component tray because they are drawn by the System.Windows.Forms.TreeView control.

Constructors

DesignTimeVisibleAttribute()	Creates a new DesignTimeVisibleAttribute set to the default value of `false`.
DesignTimeVisibleAttribute(Boolean)	Creates a new DesignTimeVisibleAttribute with the Visible property set to the given value in `visible`.

Fields

Default	The default visibility which is `Yes`.
No	Marks a component as not visible in a visual designer.
Yes	Marks a component as visible in a visual designer.

Properties

TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)
Visible	Gets or sets whether the component should be shown at design time.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object.
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code for this instance.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()	Gets a value indicating if this instance is equal to the Default value.
Match(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute)
