this properties by default appears in the Property grid of the designer.

Now, one of this properties take value only between 0 and 1 .

Hi,

You can't have an updown inplace control in the Microsoft PropertyGrid. But you can have a dropdown list with your values 0 and 1. Just derive a TypeConverter from Int32Converter and override GetStandardValuesSupported (to return true) and GetStandardValues (to return an array with 0 and 1). Then attach the converter to your property.
