I have created a user Control which contains Show property can set to True or False and another property Color which Changes Color of my control. But I want that when user will use in Windows Application then user should be able to change these properties. How can I do this ???

C#

public bool Draw1MinuteTicks
    {
        get { return this.bDraw1MinuteTicks; }
        set { this.bDraw1MinuteTicks = value; }
    }
public Color TicksColor
    {
        get { return this.ticksColor; }
        set { this.ticksColor = value; }
    }

I have these properties. when I run and Check my Control it works fine. I run my control and set the Draw1MinuteTicks property to False and stop debugging and is I run again then the Draw1MinuteTicks Property is set to True. So I want that when I run my control and change Draw1MinuteTicks property to False then next time when I run my Control, Draw1MinuteTicks Property should be false only. and the same way TicksColor property to save the coor selected and show the same again when the control will be run.

How to do this ??

This is the beauty of app settings...
So your color etc should be assigned using App settings...
Suppose you have a setting called "CurrentColor"

C#

var settings = YourAppNameSpace.Default;
string currentcolor = settings[CurrentColor];
     
somcontrol.BackColor = Color.FromName(currentcolor);

Also save settings as :

C#

var settings = YourAppNameSpace.Default;
string currentcolor = "Blue";
settings["CurrentColor"] = currentcolor;
settings.Save();
