Chameleon CHM 1-2-3 with Ben

Ben Tiedt provided a very instructional reply to a Community Server Forums question on how to obtain the various QueryOverride properties of a Chameleon control in the CHM Chameleon Control Documentation.  Here is part of his reply:

 

To navigate to the QueryOverrides options for the WeblogList control using the help file, you can follow these steps

  1. Use the "Index" to find the WeblogList class and select it

  2. The overview of the WeblogList control should now appear.  Click the "Members" link at the top of the document.

  3. All of the methods and properties of the WeblogList control should now be shown.  Navigate to the "QueryOverrides" property and click it.

  4. The definition of the QueryOverrides property should now be shown.  Its type should be shown as "SectionQuery", click the type.

  5. The definition of the SectionQuery is now shown.  Click the "Members" link at the top of the document.

  6. The "Public Properties" list for the SectionQuery shows all of the properties exposed via QueryOverrides for the WeblogList control.

 

So I thought, heck, I was going to walk through Ben's steps and take a look at these QueryOverride bad boys in the CHM myself.  I usually go straight to the object's Query class, or in the case of WeblogPostList, the WeblogPostQuery class where the properties are located.  But for the API documentation-minded, the CHM does the job, as the screenshot of the final step of Ben's instructions demonstrates.
