Form Properites

[pz]

Hello,
Is there a possibility to write a properties (or method) to class
derived from Form to make a some changes in InitializeComponent() for
ALL child:
for example add MYFUNCTION to retrieve item Name?


this.button1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(120, 91);
this.button1.Name = MYFUNCTION("button1");
.....
this.ctlTab.Name = MYFUNCTION("MyControlTab");

(something like globalization)

Manually changes are not acceptable by designer.

Thanx for help

P.

I'm not sure what it is you're trying to do, but if it's like globalization,
couldn't you use similar methods like resource files?

It is also completely possible to edit the InitializeComponent() section
yourself. Depending on the changes you make, the designer might not work
anymore, but then you are left where you would be anyway, that is writing
all the designer code yourself. Not necessarily a bad thing.

HTH,
