Set default values of properties in a global scale

Hi,

i'd love to have an option, to set a value to the default values in IG controls.

We all know, most of the IG own properties in the IG Controls are preassigned to default. And we also all know, that if we have set (for example an UltraGrid) all properties to our liking and want to place another one with the same setting in a different form, we have to copy the grid or set it up from scratch again. Another approach is a derived control, which sets its own properties in the constructor.

My wish could look like this: 

For every project, we get a settings dialog, where we can set for each control class the default values. Also we can change it afterwards.

I'd be also happy, if i could set these values in the project style.isl, but that's the wrong place i think. 

My inspiration for this is our pretty huge project, where we figured out while testing with customers, that the UltraCombo and UltraComboEditor had the wrong AutoCompleteMode. There are at least 200 of these controls in the project and every single one has as property value "default". It would be a miracle to set this property for all controls in the whole project. 

I hope you get my point
