| CustomAJAXResponse | Container for values passed to client within AJAX response. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| DesignMode | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| EnableAjaxCallbacks | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |

| ImageDirectory | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| IsCallback | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| IsEmpty | Checks if ViewState has any property with not a default value. This property should be overriden by extended class when additional subobjects are supported. IsEmpty will then check each subobject and return a value based on the check of those objects plus itself. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| LoadViewStateCalled | Returns whether the view state has been loaded yet (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |

| Template | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject) |
| UserAgent | Information about client that is making the request. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| XAttribute | Indicates which attribute should be used for XAttribute. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | AdditionalClientState | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| CollectionData | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| Control | Reference to the control that owns this RunBot. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| DeferLoadPostDataProcessing | Overridden. Called by base RunBot in response to RaisePostDataChangedEvent called on the control This method fires data changed events to the application as specified in the EventList created earlier |
| DelayLoadingClientCollections | If true will delay the client collections loading in LoadPostData, after the view state has been loaded. If false the client collections will be loaded in HandleOnInit, when LoadClientState is called. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| Flags | Stores all the ClientUIFlags into one integer, that will be passed down to the client in the Client Property Array. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject) |
| IsTrackingViewState | This method returns a boolean value which indicates whether ViewState is being tracked for the object. Once viewstate is being tracked, all property changes are roundtripped from server to client and back within the ViewState hidden field. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| OptimizeCollectionsState | The collections client state will be stored in the view state and the client collections will not be sent from the client on postback. This is possible because client collections contain static data that does not change on the client. This data is used by the client API and when something is updated it is stored in the transactions list. If false the collections from the client side will be uploaded as before. Setting this to true, will increase page size in terms of view state, but will decrease the postback time numerously, because the collections state will not be uploaded from the client. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| PropCount | Overridden. Returns the total number of properties on the object that should go to the client.. This should be calculated by taking the amount of Properties on the base class plus the amount of properties on this class. If you are deriving from this object and need to add additional client properties, you must override this property. |
| SupportsAjaxIndicator | Overridden. Returns true |
| TransactionLists | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| ViewState | Property to return the ViewState bag for the object. If none exist, then one is created. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|

| InitializeStyles | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |

| InstantiateTemplate | Overloaded. Instantiates the template. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| IsDirty | Overloaded. Public shortcut to check if object has had data changes Derived classes must override this method if they conain subobjects in addition to Style or Attributes so that the item will be saved to ViewState if the subobject is dirty. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject) |

| AppStyleInfo | Overridden. This is where a control needs to set up their AppStyleInfo object. If you are deriving from this control and want to apply differnt appstyling, you need to override this method and define your own Roles. |
| CreateNewInstance | Creates a new instance of the current type using the default constructor. Derived classes may override the method if there is no parameterless constructor or any other custom logic applies. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| CreateStyleBot | (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.RunBot) |
| EnsureFlag | To be used in EnsureFlags. This method stores the ClientUIFlag in the private flags Hashtable. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.UIObject) |
| EnsureFlags | Overridden. A method internally used by the framework to determine which ClientUIFlags should be set on the object. |

| LoadAdditionalClientState | This method is called when additional information is passed from the client, via the _saveAdditionalClientState javascript method (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| LoadClientCollections | Overridden. Loads the Collections that were sent down to the client, back into the control. |
| LoadClientCollectionsTransactionList | Overridden. A.T. 11 / 09/ 2009 we need this so that items state is loaded before the properties so that SelectedItemIndex is set to the correct item. Why? because the new implementation for SelectedItemIndex's getter will basically loop through the items and return the first selected item. If item's state is not updated, we will end up returning the old selection ASP DropDownList and ListControl are functioning in the same way (i.e. looping through items) this enables us to return the correct selected index, when selection is just set by setting the Selected property of any item. |
| LoadClientObjects | Overridden. Loads the Objects that were sent down to the client, back into the control. |
| LoadClientObjectsTransactionList | Overridden. Reads the Transaction List and repopulates the objects of the control. |

It also stores the TransactionLists for the Properties, Objects, and Collections. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| LoadClientStateFromViewState | Checks to see if ClientState was saved into Viewstate, if so, then it loads. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| LoadCollectionsStateFromViewState | Loads the saved into view state client collections and deserializes the string as it came from the client side. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |

| SaveClientStateToViewState | If the control is not visible, we don't want to loose our ClientState during the next postback, so lets store it in ViewState. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
| SaveCollectionsStateToViewState | Saves the client collections state as string into the view state. This way we can skip the expensive serialization on the client side and not send them at all. (Inherited from Infragistics.Web.UI.Framework.ObjectBase) |
