DesignerVerb Class
Assembly: System (in system.dll)
A designer verb is a menu command linked to an event handler. Designer verbs are added to a component's shortcut menu at design time. In Visual Studio, each designer verb is also listed, using a LinkLabel, in the Description pane of the Properties window.

| The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this class has the following Resources property value: SharedState. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes. |
The following code example demonstrates how to create DesignerVerb objects and add them to the design-time shortcut menu for a component.
using System; using System.ComponentModel; using System.ComponentModel.Design; using System.Collections; /* This sample demonstrates a designer that adds menu commands to the design-time shortcut menu for a component. To test this sample, build the code for the component as a class library, add the resulting component to the toolbox, open a form in design mode, and drag the component from the toolbox onto the form. The component should appear in the component tray beneath the form. Right-click the component. The verbs should appear in the shortcut menu. */ namespace CSDesignerVerb { // Associate MyDesigner with this component type using a DesignerAttribute [Designer(typeof(MyDesigner))] public class Component1 : System.ComponentModel.Component { } // This is a designer class which provides designer verb menu commands for // the associated component. This code is called by the design environment at design-time. internal class MyDesigner : ComponentDesigner { DesignerVerbCollection m_Verbs; // DesignerVerbCollection is overridden from ComponentDesigner public override DesignerVerbCollection Verbs { get { if (m_Verbs == null) { // Create and initialize the collection of verbs m_Verbs = new DesignerVerbCollection(); m_Verbs.Add( new DesignerVerb("First Designer Verb", new EventHandler(OnFirstItemSelected)) ); m_Verbs.Add( new DesignerVerb("Second Designer Verb", new EventHandler(OnSecondItemSelected)) ); } return m_Verbs; } } MyDesigner() { } private void OnFirstItemSelected(object sender, EventArgs args) { // Display a message System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("The first designer verb was invoked."); } private void OnSecondItemSelected(object sender, EventArgs args) { // Display a message System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("The second designer verb was invoked."); } } }
