The following code example uses an EditorAttribute to associate the AnchorEditor with a property.

public:
   [EditorAttribute(System::ComponentModel::Design::CollectionEditor::typeid,
      System::Drawing::Design::UITypeEditor::typeid)]
   property System::Windows::Forms::AnchorStyles testAnchor 
   {
      System::Windows::Forms::AnchorStyles get()
      {
         return anchor;
      }
      void set( System::Windows::Forms::AnchorStyles value )
      {
         anchor = value;
      }
   }
private:
   AnchorStyles anchor;

[EditorAttribute(typeof(System.Windows.Forms.Design.AnchorEditor), typeof(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))]
public System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles testAnchor
{
    get
    {
        return anchor;
    }
    set
    {
        anchor = value;
    }
}
private AnchorStyles anchor;

<EditorAttribute(GetType(System.Windows.Forms.Design.AnchorEditor), GetType(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))>  _
Public Property testAnchor() As System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles
   Get
      Return anchor
   End Get
   Set
      anchor = value
   End Set
End Property
Private anchor As AnchorStyles

Remarks

The AnchorEditor provides a design-time user interface for configuring an Anchor property. An Anchor property is typically used to determine which sides of the container a control is bound to. This class provides a drop-down graphical control that allows the user to specify which sides of the container to anchor the control to.
