How remove description area from property grid?


Winforms has a control titled PropertyGrid. A display element of the PropertyGrid is a description area. By default it displays the name of the selected property. Using attributes, a programmer can have it display other text. I would like to remove it completely. It is taking up too much space and I don't need to have it display anything. I do not see any properties in the object model to remove it. Please post a solution for removing it.

Below is a screen shot of what I'm talking about. I would like to remove the area in red such that "PercentComplete" is at the bottom of the frame.

Solution

  • Try setting the PropertyGrid's HelpVisible property to false.
