Name

AmbientValueAttribute

Synopsis

If a control defines a property that can take an ambient value from its host, it must be decorated with this attribute. The designer will use this attribute to determine whether to persist the control’s current value, or whether to leave it to the ambient environment. You can retrieve the Value for the object that represents “use the ambient value.”

public sealed class AmbientValueAttribute : Attribute {
