Provides a UITypeEditor that shows an auto-complete-enabled drop-down list using an AutoCompleteComboBox, allowing quick selection of string values within a PropertyGrid.

public class AutoCompleteComboBoxEditor : DropDownVisualizer<AutoCompleteComboBox>

This editor supports auto-complete behavior based on a configurable AutoCompleteSource and AutoCompleteMode as defined by the AutoCompleteSetupAttribute. For CustomSource, the list of suggestions can be provided:

• Directly via string array
• From an enum's names
• From a public static string[] Values property on a class

When configured with an enum type, the editor displays the enum's names, and returns the selected enum value rather than a string. Otherwise, the selected string is returned.

Apply this editor to a string property like this:

[AutoCompleteSetup(AutoCompleteSource.FileSystem)]
[Editor(typeof(AutoCompleteComboBoxEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
public string FilePath { get; set; }

[AutoCompleteSetup(typeof(ConsoleColor))]
[Editor(typeof(AutoCompleteComboBoxEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
public string FavoriteColor { get; set; }

[AutoCompleteSetup("Red", "Green", "Blue")]
[Editor(typeof(AutoCompleteComboBoxEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
public string CustomColor { get; set; }
