Custom Properties (Palette / Grid / Modeless)

[Rakesh Rao]

Dear Forum Support,

I would like to create an interface that can be used for showing the custom properties of an object that I am using in my design application.

My question is - whether I must do it using the Palette or simply use a Modeless dialog.

I believe that I must use a Grid control to build the properties panel, but I am unable to get a handle on thsi.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Many thanks & Regards

Just to add.....

I will figure out the rest of it myself, just want to know what control to use:

Modeless form + Grid Control + .....

or

Palette + Grid Control + .....

I cannot seem to understand the difference between them.
