The Link Property Style

Link Property style is used to link a property name to the topic describing that property.

To create a link using this style, select the link text and press Link Property  on the Doc-To-Help Documenter for .NET toolbar.

For this style, the Doc-To-Help compiler will apply the nested type separator substitution to the link text, if applicable, see Special Characters in Link Text, add the word Property to the text, and establish a link to the topic with the title coinciding with the resulting text.

By default, Doc-To-Help removes the name of the type containing the property, if the type name is present. You can change this behavior by using the special characters, exclamation sign and parenthesis. See Special Characters in Link Text. You can also use the argument list for property overloads with arguments, see Argument List in Links.

The following table demonstrates the usage of the Link Property style:
