A customizable way to set enum flags

The FlagsEnumButton is an extension of the Button control that presents the values of a Flags Enum as a list of checkable options in a dropdown menu. The Enum values can overlap, where selecting one value simultaneously selects other values. The items in the dropdown are autogenerated and the text on the button can be customized to show the selected flags in multiple ways.

I fell in love with software development in 1973 and have been reveling in it ever since. My experience over the years has had me coding in over 20 programming languages and included stints in embedded systems, SCM, SQA, and software test. I've been in the DoD world, NASA support, quasi-military commercial, enterprise publishing, and even timeshare systems. Through it all, my favorite language remains C#. I love my job! (And retirement is quite nice, too!)
