| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Equals | Gets a value indicating whether this object is equivalent to the specified object. (Overrides Attribute.Equals(Object).) |
| GetHashCode | Returns the hash code for this instance. (Overrides Attribute.GetHashCode().) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| IsDefaultAttribute | Gets a value indicating whether this attribute instance is equal to the Default attribute value. (Overrides Attribute.IsDefaultAttribute().) |
| Match | When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |

| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Default | The default DataGridViewColumnDesignTimeVisibleAttribute value, which is Yes, indicating that the column is visible in the DataGridView designer. |
| No | A DataGridViewColumnDesignTimeVisibleAttribute value indicating that the column is not visible in the DataGridView designer. |
| Yes | A DataGridViewColumnDesignTimeVisibleAttribute value indicating that the column is visible in the DataGridView designer. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| _Attribute.GetIDsOfNames | Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
| _Attribute.GetTypeInfo | Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
| _Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount | Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute.) |
| _Attribute.Invoke | Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute.) |
By default, types derived from DataGridViewColumn appear in DataGridView control-specific parts of the Visual Studio designer, but inherit a DesignTimeVisibleAttribute of No to prevent them from appearing in other parts of the designer. This is necessary because the DataGridViewColumn type implements the IComponent interface, which normally makes an instance of the type appear in the designer.
Use this attribute to prevent a DataGridViewColumn type from appearing in the DataGridView control-specific designer.
