Hello,

I've noticed a nice feature in VS 2005: Intellisense now provides
autocompletion for Color, Pen, Brush parameters with the static members in
the Color, Pens and Brushes classes (perhaps this works for more classes).
This is new, because previously only enumerations got this treatment, and for
enums it was easy to get all the members, but in this case there is no
(obvious) object relation between the parameter type and the values provided
at autocompletion.

Does anyone know if this is hardcoded in the IDE or if there is an
extensibility mechanism for it (similar to, say, a
TypeConverter.GetStandardValues)?

Thanks,
Euphilos

Thanks for your praise on our new autocomplete feature of VS2005, it
appears to be implemented with an VS extensibility mechanism with it, if
you have interest on this, I suggest you may post this question to our
corresponding MSDN forum, our development team engineer may discussthis
issue with you directly there:

Thanks for your understanding!
