Testimonials

"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!"

Built-in styles

Thanks to its feature allowing to create any visual identity for the whole control, Smart PropertyGrid is supplied with three built-in styles:

The default one, called "classic" has no special decoration. It will fit in any windows application with no special advanced GUI framework used.

The second one applies a style "a la .NET" and will have a great impact in modern GUIs. Of course you can apply the color you wish to conform to your own theme.

The third one is also a clean and professional look. It has been seen in Sony DVD Architect, a software that seems to have a proprietary PropertyGrid. Any gradient can be put in the categories and subcategories. Also notice that horizontal lines that start only under the label, emphasizing the structure of the tree.
