I have a control that derives from the TextBox control. It has some additional properties in addition to the ones inherited from the TextBox control.

I know that for all public properties, the default value for the browseable attribute is true which means that when you drag a control on to a form, the property will show up in the propertyGrid.

My question is how do I turn the browseable attribute to false since I don't want all the properties in my control to show up in the propertygrid.

I will explicitly set the browseable property to true for those properties that I want to show up in the propertygrid.

Anyhelp in this regard is greatly appreciated.

You have to add the BrowsableAttribute attribute to your property, and it is set to false, to tell the property browser that the property in non-browsable.

public class MyTextBox : TextBox { [Browsable(false)] public bool NonBrowsableProperty { get { return true; } } }
