Removing element from the Run-time Object Inspector

rbuser

How do I remove an element from the run-time object inspector in the Report
TreeView.

It is in a component inherited from the standard components.

Thanks in advance.

Can you provide more details about what you are trying to accomplish? When
you say element are referring to removing a component property or a
component?

The object inspector displays all of the publish properties for the
component.

OK, that was a little too abstract.

What I want to do is to hide the datapipeline property from a SubReport
decendant.

Redeclaring it in the public section does not seem to change anything.

The object inspector will display all of the published properties. Once a
property is published in an ancestor, it cannot be unpublished in a
descendant.

The TppPropertyCategoryManager.GetCategoryCollectionForComponent method in
ppInspector.pas is responsible for building the property list.
