When you drag an UltraTextEditor control onto a form, it has a default text value, e.g. 'UltraTextEditor1'. This is undesirable, because most of the time you don't default the value of text boxes for user input, and when designing forms with many text boxes, you have to clear out the default text on each one which takes a lot of unnecessary time. I cannot find any way (e.g. through inheritance, etc.) to prevent this behavior. Is there some way to do it that I just haven't come across?
I don't know of any way to change this behavior. This is nothing to do with the control itself, it's a function of Visual Studio. The Form designer sets the Text on any new Control you add to the form.
