I didn't want to pack all my questions into the Evaluation thread, so am creating these separately.

My business entities inherit from a base class.

When I add a new ObjectBinding, the ChildProperty and ParentProperty lists only contain the properties in the base class.

Is this by design? I note that I can manually type in the property name and it is recognized at run-time.

Thanks once again.

The Virtual Tree editor will only display properties that belong to the TypeName that you have specified for the binding - have you specified the base class in the TypeName? At runtime it binds dynamically to the actual object property and so can resolve the property names.

No, I didn't bind to the base class. I suppose that within the Entity Framework generated code, something confuses the VirtualTree. I'll create hand-rolled entities with inheritance and test them.

I tested with handwritten classes here at the office and the tree does indeed list all properties in both the base and inherited classes, in the ChildProperty and ParentProperty comboboxes, in the editor.

I'll look closely at my environment at home. Obviously, something is amiss.

Thank you.
