Description

Responds when the property is selected in the Object Inspector.

The Object Inspector calls Activate when the property is selected. This method lets a property editor determine attributes of the property dynamically when it is displayed in the Object Inspector.

Before Activate is called, the GetAttributes method does not need to provide accurate information about any attributes other than paSubProperties, paVCL, and paMultiSelect. Any other attributes can be computed in the Activate method and stored so that subsequent calls to GetAttributes can provide accurate information.
