Custom PropertyGrid and DateTimePicker replacements for Windows Forms / .NET

Smart PropertyGrid.Net

Finally, a truly flexible and customizable PropertyGrid for serious .Net developers.

SPG.Net is full of benefits for your applications. Click on the links below to discover some of them:

Given the time and effort that it can take getting up to speed with the Microsoft Property Grid, it is very frustrating when you realize that it is not going to allow you to present data in anything but the most basic ways without digging into unsupported techniques, and then all bets are off on the future of your application. The Smart Property Grid gives us both the ability to leverage our skills and code written for the MSPG, and the flexibility that every developer wants when creating a polished UI. Thank you VisualHint for providing such a great product and for your wonderful and responsive support!

Smart FieldPackEditor.Net

First, there was the restrictive and defective legacy DateTimePicker. Now there's FieldPackEditor...

SFPE.Net introduces the first true DateTimePicker replacement and even more:

Screencasts:

Screencast 1: a full featured DateTimePicker

Screencast 2: three different ways to nullify a DateTimePicker

Screencast 3: Databinding and the DataGridView

Screencast 4: a FieldPackEditor is not just for dates and times

Screencast of the new TimeSpan editor for .Net

In this version, you will find a totally new MonthCalendar for .Net.

SPG.Net 3.1 and SFPE.Net 1.3 are released:

This joint release mainly focuses on the addition of a new localizable month calendar that can be used standalone (free for all) and as a dropdown calendar in Smart FieldPackEditor and Smart PropertyGrid. You will of course find a few new features and the usual list of bug fixes.
