The Dabo Designer now supports component classes that can be used in
multiple forms, with full inheritance maintained. This allows you to
not only re-use some useful components, but to have updates to those
components automatically appear in the designs that use them.
Let's say you created a 'mover' control: one that moves items
between two lists. This can be handy in lots of forms, so you save it
as a class. Later on you need to create another form that needs a
mover, so you add an instance of your mover class to this new design
surface. It will simply work as expected. But now suppose that a few
weeks later, after you've used this class in dozens of forms, you
discover a bug in your mover code. No problem: just fix the bug in
your class, and all the forms that use your mover are also fixed!
