Adorner Class

Manages a collection of user-interface related Glyph objects. This class cannot be inherited.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Forms.Design.Behavior
Assembly:  System.Design (in System.Design.dll)

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class Adorner
'Usage
Dim instance As Adorner

Each Adorner can be enabled and disabled. Only enabled Adorner objects will receive hit test and paint messages from the BehaviorService. An Adorner can be viewed as a proxy between user-interface related elements, which consist of all Glyph objects, and the BehaviorService.

For more information, see Behavior Service Overview.

The following code example demonstrates how the Adorner class interacts with the Glyph and BehaviorService classes. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the BehaviorService class.

myAdorner = New Adorner()
BehaviorService.Adorners.Add(myAdorner)

System.Object
  System.Windows.Forms.Design.Behavior.Adorner
