#Remarks

Use the BorderStyle property to specify how the editor’s border should be drawn. If the property value is BorderStyles.Default, the border’s look and feel is specified by the editor’s RepositoryItem.LookAndFeel property.

This property is synchronized with the editor’s BaseEdit.BorderStyle property.

Changing the BorderStyle property value raises the RepositoryItem.PropertiesChanged event.
