I tried to take control of the main windows label in a custom usercontrol.
In the toolbox the control no longer has the graphic for a Label, but has a
generic graphic. Is there a way to have it have the same Label in the
toolbox in Visual Studio?



Public Class MyLabel

Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Label

<Browsable(False)> _

Public Shadows ReadOnly Property TabIndex() As Integer

' So it will not show up when doing tab ordering.

Get

Return MyBase.TabIndex

End Get

End Property

End Class
