WebFormsRootDesigner Class

Definition

Provides a base class for the design-time functionality of a Web Forms page and allows access to and manipulation of components and controls that are contained within the Web Forms page at design time.

public ref class WebFormsRootDesigner abstract : IDisposable, System::ComponentModel::Design::IDesignerFilter, System::ComponentModel::Design::IRootDesigner

Remarks

A design host, such as Visual Studio 2005, must provide its own derived version of the WebFormsRootDesigner class to control designers through the RootDesigner property of the designer. Control designers use the RootDesigner property to access and manipulate the containing Web Forms page at design time.
