There's no way to have a file selector, color picker, listbox or whatever clickable in the PEM window for the custom properties. None that I know; I had to tell him to be satisfied with the comment available, it will at least give some hunch to anyone who uses the class as to what the property should represent. Still, I'd like to be able to declare the type of the property (numeric, integer, integer in the range 0-10, color integer, filename, picture filename, icon filename...).

I guess that new Assign event allows to check and limit property value and datatype.
