Remarks

The PropertyFilterAttribute supports an internal mechanism that limits the number of properties on a type that are returned by the custom DependencyObject type descriptor. If the attribute is found, the type descriptor narrows the scope of returned properties. PropertyFilterAttribute differs from typical attributes because you cannot apply it to a class as metadata. The filter mechanism works through code instead of through static metadata.

Constructors

PropertyFilterAttribute(PropertyFilterOptions)

Initializes a new instance of the PropertyFilterAttribute class.
