I have create a custom form and a UserControl which acts like custom form's title bar. What I want to achieve, is to integrate UserControl's properties into custom form's properties. Something like nested properties.

What I have tried:

Something like this. Here we have Button's properties integrated into TextBox's properties. Any idea how can I do that?

This is one way how such a Property could be made - integrate it into the Code of your Control (Form) and replace the Button with your UserControl ...

VB

<System.ComponentModel.DesignerSerializationVisibility(System.ComponentModel.DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)>
Property ButtonProperties As Button
    Get
        Return myButton
    End Get
    Set(value As Button)
        myButton = value
    End Set
End Property
Private myButton As New Button
