While the EnumSeparatePascalCase handles many situations it would be nice to be able to specify a substitution character like an underscore that could be used to insert spaces when displaying a enum. For example in our organization all departments are represented by a three character abbreviation and I have an enum that looks like:

 

Public Enum UserType

    HRA_Employee  

    HSA_Employee  

    Other_County_Employee  

    Community_Partner  

    Contractor  

    Vendor  

End Enum

 

Since I can’t separate all of them on PascalCase I end up inserting underscores. This works but it would make the application cleaner if I could easily eliminate the underscores when displaying the information.

It is documented yet?

Kinda - it is in the "What's New in Version 1.5" .  I guess it was not enough of a hint.  We added the feature in order to localize enums -- those darn Brazilians.  BigGrin

I assume this is available in 1.5.1?

Good assumption.
