Improve library controls design time experience #202

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I saw there a few controls which are not visible inside VS toolbox. Sometimes 
it is easier to use them via toolbox drag and drop. I think you could improve 
that and use ToolboxItemAttribute. Please refer to 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.componentmodel.toolboxitemattribu
te.aspx

All controls are visible. All you need to do is:
1) Right click in some tab of Toolbox (for example “General”) and select 
“Chose Items...”;
2) Browst to “AForge.Controls.dll”;
3) By default all AForge.Controls components are checked. You may uncheck some. 
Press OK;
4) If all components are checked (as by default), you will get them all – 7 
components for 2.1.5 version.

BTW, as far as I can see from MSDN, the ToolboxItemAttribute does not affect 
visibility. It just allows to customize the toolbox item (icon, title, etc.)
