Property Value

The owner control is the control object which the AnnDesigner will use during the designing of the AnnObject. The LEADTOOLS annotation framework uses an Leadtools.WinForms.RasterImageViewer object for this value.

To annotate your own control that implements IAnnAutomationControl, you must assign your control to the AutomationControl property and leave the value of Owner to be the default of null.

Note: In LEADTOOLS v17 and later, the framework uses an internal class that implements IAnnAutomationControl even when the automation is using the standard LEADTOOLS Leadtools.WinForms.RasterImageViewer class, so the value of Owner will always be null, instead, obtain the control being automated using the AutomationControl property.

Refer to IAnnAutomationControl for an example on how to use LEADTOOLS annotations with your own controls.
