hi,

Is there a way to Hide the search Box?

Thanks

Yes I have done this, and the type property as well (I'll post a Patch sometime)

Here are the details for PropertyGrid.cs

        #region Show Search Property

        /// <value>Identifies the ShowSearch dependency property</value>
        public static DependencyProperty ShowSearchProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register("ShowSearch", typeof(bool), typeof(PropertyGrid),
                                        new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(false));

        /// <value>description for ShowSearch property</value>
        public bool ShowSearch
        {
           get { return (bool)GetValue(ShowSearchProperty); }
           set { SetValue(ShowSearchProperty, value); }
        }

        #endregion

        #region Show Type Property

        /// <value>Identifies the ShowType dependency property</value>
        public static DependencyProperty ShowTypeProperty =
            DependencyProperty.Register("ShowType", typeof(bool), typeof(PropertyGrid),
                                        new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(false));

        /// <value>description for ShowType property</value>
        public bool ShowType
        {
           get { return (bool)GetValue(ShowTypeProperty); }
           set { SetValue(ShowTypeProperty, value); }
        }

        #endregion

And here are the details for PropertyGrid.Xaml (I'm sure you will be able to work out their locations)

                              <DockPanel DataContext="{TemplateBinding local:PropertyGrid.ShowType}" DockPanel.Dock="Top" Margin="6 2 0 4">
