ColorConverter

Synopsis

This subclass of TypeConverter is used to transform Color objects to other types. Specifically, it can convert to and from a string representation used in persistence and design-time scenarios. Normally, you would use Color.ToString() and Color.Name to do this conversion yourself.

public class ColorConverter : System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter {
