Default | Return the default property metadata | |
Description | Description of this GraphProperty | |
DescriptiveCategoryCaption | (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
Group | For grouping this Property in a Property Grid. | |
IsBrowsable | Return true if the property is browsable | |
IsCollapsed | Get whether this node is collapsed. (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
IsExpanded | Get whether this node is expanded. (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
IsGroup | Get whether this object is IsGroup. It looks for the GraphProperties.StyleForGroup (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |

Methods
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
AddCategory | Add a category to the object (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |

CopyCategories | Copy any new categories from the given object, keeping existing categories. (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
CopyProperties | Copy any new properties from the given object, keeping existing property values unchanged. (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
Equals | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) | |

MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) | |
RemoveCategory | Remove the category of this object (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
SetValue<T> | Sets the value of the given property. If the proeprty already exists, its value is overwritten unless the annotation flags prevent otherwise. (Inherited from GraphObject.) | |
