Hi,

Just a question: How do you determine the valid string value for the converter - is it documented anywhere? I know that in this case it's probably reasonably obvious - just wondering about the more general case.

FWIW the VB.NET equivalent of

[DefaultValue(typeof(System.Drawing.Size), "100, 45")]
is
<DefaultValue(GetType(System.Drawing.Size), "100, 45")>
