WinDropDown Smart Tag

In Visual Studio 2005 (.NET Framework 2.0), each Ultimate UI for Windows Forms control/component is equipped with a Smart Tag. By simply selecting the control/component, a Smart Tag anchor appears. When you click this anchor, a pop-up panel appears, providing you with quick and easy access to the most common properties and settings of the control/component.

The WinDropDown™ Smart Tag contains the name of the control, as well as the following sections:

  • Data — Refers to any underlying data the control is using such as data sources and data members.

  • Layout — Offers properties that will determine where and how the control is placed on the form.

See below for a description of the item (e.g., field, drop-down list, checkbox) in each section, as well as the item’s corresponding property in the properties grid.

More than one column can be displayed in the WinDropDown’s drop-down. This is where you can edit the Columns collection. You can also edit the Columns collection in the properties grid. Expand DisplayLayout, expand Bands, and then expand Band 0 (which will display in the grid as "0 - tablename "). Under Band 0, click the ellipsis (…​) in the Columns row to open the Columns collection.
