PropertyGrid

PropertyGrid uses reflection to browse through the provided object's public fields and properties and places them on the editing grid.

This process could be controlled by assigning the fields and properties following attributes:

Attribute	Description
[Browsable(false)]	Ignores a field/property
[Category(categoryName)]	Puts a field/property under the specified category
[DisplayName(displayName)]	Uses provided displayName as name

I.e. consider following class definition:

	public enum State
	{
		Sleeping,
		Moving,
		Attacking
	}

	public class HitPoints
	{
		public int Current;
		public int Maximum
		{
			get; set;
		}
	}

	public class Player
	{
		public string Name;

		public bool Visible
		{
			get; set;
		}

		public State State;

		[Category("Appearance")]
		public Color Color;

		[Category("Appearance")]
		public IBrush Background;

		[Category("Layout")]
		public int X
		{
			get; set;
		}

		[Category("Layout")]
		public int Y
		{
			get; set;
		}

		[Category("Layout")]
		public int Width;

		[Category("Layout")]
		public int Height;

		[Category("Data")]
		[DisplayName("Attack (ReadOnly)")]
		public int Attack
		{
			get; private set;
		}

		[Category("Data")]
		[DisplayName("Defense (ReadOnly)")]
		public int Defense
		{
			get; private set;
		}

		[Category("Data")]
		public HitPoints HitPoints
		{
			get;
		} = new HitPoints();

		[Browsable(false)]
		public int Ignored;

		public Player()
		{
			Name = "Player";

			Color = Color.White;

			X = Y = 300;
			Width = 100;
			Height = 100;

			Visible = true;

			Attack = 100;
			Defense = 200;

			HitPoints.Current = 100;
			HitPoints.Maximum = 150;
		}
	}

Now if we provide Profile object to the PropertyGrid:

	Player player = new Player();
	PropertyGrid propertyGrid = new PropertyGrid
	{
		Object = player,
		Width = 350
	};

	Window window = new Window
	{
		Title = "Object Editor",
		Content = propertyGrid
	};

	window.ShowModal();

It would result in following:
