Hi there.
I have my own control and can add properties that are integers or strings or
icons or whatever.
But how can I make a property that only lets the user select a predefined
value?
Like in the Visible property you can't enter your own values, you can just
select True or False.
I'd like to have a property where the user can only select "Value A" "Value
B" or "Value C". I do not want it to be a boolean (as True and False are)
but my custom strings.
Can this be done? How?
Thank you in advance.
