Container 'Refresh'

[Brian_O_Brien]

I recently created a tree view from a canvas and then embedded the canvas sub class and a scroll bar to create a tree control. I was testing the control on a window and it was working well.

I decided to add a computed property (a color) to the canvas and have that exposed in the inspector behaviour.

When I ran the application the text that should have been displayed was gone due to the color being 0.

P.S. Defining a color &cRRGGBBAA seems to loose AA and there is no way in the IDE to change the alpha of an RGB Color property.

I was told I would have to delete the control off of the window and add it again every time something in the control changed. This is kinda disappointing… Perhaps there is a way to right click on the control and ‘refresh’ it? ‘Flag it’ as out of date?

That is not what I said. What you were describing was that you already had a custom control on a layout and that you changed the default value of a custom property revealed with the property inspector afterwards. That requires re-adding the control. Not anything else.
