Return Value
Type: OrderedDictionary
Returns a dictionary whose keys are the Category names and whose values are the list of properties in that category. The returned value is never nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Remarks
The returned list may contain auto-generated categories. If a BaseProperty (or its derived classes) refer to a property that is not specified, then an new Category is generated for it. If no category is specified for the property, then the property is put in the "General" category.
The list of categories is exactly as specified in the XAML file. The auto-generated categories come after the specified categories but in no strict order.
