Create your own controls
- Design, create and customize your own controls right on your Visual Basic form without writing any code. Use either the designer's property pages or write code that uses the logically designed properties, methods and events

- Transform objects of one type of control to another without changing your already tested/existing code
ActiveX technology
- Designed for Microsoft Visual Basic 6

- Provides extremely complete and organized property pages for visual programming
- All controls are windowless for minimum use of resources and the ability to display many controls on your form without lag. Do more and put more on your forms with Xceed SmartUI

Object model
- The object model's basic building blocks are the universal smart control that can appear in any shape or form, as well as the smart items that appear in the smart control
- Every control provided with Xceed SmartUI is in reality a customization of the base smart control
- The source code on how to build each included control is included in the lessons
- Having one control ensures that there are far less bugs and makes Xceed SmartUI and your application much more stable than using separate components
