Enums & VS.NET Properties Panel - How allow enum to be edited?

by Spam Catcher on 11/1/2007 7:09:00 PM Hi all,

I have a usercontrol with a settable enum. How do I allow the user to edit
the enum through VS.NET's property panel?

The enum shows up, but it's not currently editable.

Thanks.

hmmm... The property is not readonly? Because, if I do that, I get a
drop down with the enum values populated. I don't have to do anything
at all.

You're right!

I didn't notice I had set the SET to PRIVATE :-)
