Hello,

I am hosting the designer using the 2.0 framework. When a component is added
to the designer form I catch the ComponentAdded event and would like to
change some of the properties of the control. However any properties that I
change do not seem to stick. I have tried direct settings such as

(Button)(e.Component).Text = "this is it";

and also used reflection through a PropertyInfo.SetValue() call. Neither one
worked correctly.

Is there a preferred method to have the property changes "Stick".

Thanks in advance,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I think you have to use PropertyDescriptor.SetValue which uses
IComponentChangeService internally.
