i'd prefer if's as well, if one could override them externally..
but it is questionable, if it is usefull to derive/override properties. if yes, than callbacks are the only option so far.
so a still stayed with the explicit naming of the handlers, so full control in handlers remains. everything else is done as you said, this is the result so far.

CTRL_PROPERTIES(Ctrl, RecurseDone)
PROPERTY("data", PropSetData, PropGetData)
PROPERTY("enable", PropEnable, PropIsEnabled)
PROPERTY("show", PropShow, PropIsVisible)
PROPERTY("editable", PropEditable, PropIsEditable)
PROPERTY("logpos", PropSetLogPos, PropGetLogPos)
PROPERTY("focus", PropFocus, PropHasFocus)
PROPERTY("modify", PropModify, PropIsModified)
PROPERTY("tip", PropSetTip, PropGetTip)
PROPERTY("wantfocus", PropWantFocus, PropIsWantFocus)
PROPERTY("initFocus", PropInitFocus, PropIsInitFocus)
PROPERTY("backpaint", PropBackPaint, PropIsBackPaint)
PROPERTY("transparent", PropTransparent, PropIsTransparent)
PROPERTY_SET("refresh", PropRefresh)
END_CTRL_PROPERTIES

..

CTRL_PROPERTIES(EditInt, Ctrl)
PROPERTY("min", PropSetMin, PropGetMin)
PROPERTY("max", PropSetMax, PropGetMax)
END_CTRL_PROPERTIES

if c++ had delegates like in c# Smile

that'd be the best.

BTW: how to install a MouseHook (which is no __thiscall) to operate on a application local TopWindow? i want to start an edit properties window on arbitrary controls upon a mouse+key combination..

EDIT: solution found, just tell me if there are pitfalls i dont see:

bool MyMouseHook(Ctrl *ctrl, bool inframe, int event, Point p,
	                          int zdelta, dword keyflags)
{
	if(event & (Ctrl::MOUSEMOVE | Ctrl::MOUSEENTER | Ctrl::MOUSELEAVE | Ctrl::CURSORIMAGE)) return false;
	if((keyflags & K_MOUSERIGHT))
	if((keyflags & K_SHIFT_CTRL))
	{
		CallbackArgTarget<int> m;
		MenuBar menu;
		menu.Add("List Properties",m[0]);
		menu.Add("Edit Properties",m[1]);
		menu.Execute();
		if(IsNull(m)) return true;
		switch(m)
		{
			case 0:
				{ PropList& p = Single<PropList>(); p.PopUp(Ctrl::GetActiveWindow(), *ctrl); }
				break;
			case 1:
				{ PropEdit& p = Single<PropEdit>(); p.PopUp(Ctrl::GetActiveWindow(), *ctrl); }
				break;
		}
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}
