Hiding properties of the SelectedObject in the PropertyGrid

[Alessandro Del Sole]

Hi,

I have a class that is assigned as the SelectedObject of the PropertyGrid control. Is there a way to hide some of my class' properties from being displayed in the PropertyGrid? There are some values I supply by default and I do not want users to be able to change them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Alessandro,

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion Support.

Query#1:" Is there a way to hide some of my class' properties from being displayed in the PropertyGrid?"

Yes, In our PropertyGrid the particular property can be hide by using "HidePropertiesCollection". Please refer the below KB to hide the property in PropertyGrid.

Query#2:"Given value by default do not want users to be able to change them?"

We can avoid editing the property value by using "ReadOnly" attribute. We have created a sample with "ReadOnly" attribute. In tihs sample we have hide the property "Name" and we have used ReadOnly property for "Area" and "Mobile".

Please download the sample from below.
