Properties
| AllowEdit | Gets or sets a value indicating whether items in the list can be edited. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| AllowNew | Gets or sets a value indicating whether you can add items to the list using the AddNew() method. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| AllowRemove | Gets or sets a value indicating whether you can remove items from the collection. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| ApiContentInsertionPoint | This is used to get the topic at which the API table of contents is to be inserted or parented |
| ContentLayoutFile | This is used to get the content layout file metadata |
| Count | Gets the number of elements actually contained in the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| DefaultTopic | This is used to get the default topic |
| IsSortedCore | Gets a value indicating whether the list is sorted. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| Item[Int32] | Gets or sets the element at the specified index. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| Item[String] | This can be used to get a topic by its unique ID (case-insensitive) |
| Items | Gets a IList<T> wrapper around the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| MSHVRootContentContainer | This is used to get the topic that will serve as the root content container in MS Help Viewer output |
| RaiseListChangedEvents | Gets or sets a value indicating whether adding or removing items within the list raises ListChanged events. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| SortDirectionCore | Gets the direction the list is sorted. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| SortPropertyCore | Gets the property descriptor that is used for sorting the list if sorting is implemented in a derived class; otherwise, returns null. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| SupportsChangeNotificationCore | Gets a value indicating whether ListChanged events are enabled. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| SupportsSearchingCore | Gets a value indicating whether the list supports searching. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| SupportsSortingCore | Gets a value indicating whether the list supports sorting. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
Methods
| Add | Adds an object to the end of the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| AddNew | Adds a new item to the collection. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| AddNewCore | Adds a new item to the end of the collection. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| AddTopicsFromFolder | Add all topics from the specified folder recursively to the collection and to the given project file |
| All | This is used to enumerate all topics recursively |
| ApplySortCore | Sorts the items if overridden in a derived class; otherwise, throws a NotSupportedException. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| CancelNew | Discards a pending new item. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| Clear | Removes all elements from the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| ClearItems | Removes all elements from the collection. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| Contains | Determines whether an element is in the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| CopyTo | Copies the entire Collection<T> to a compatible one-dimensional Array, starting at the specified index of the target array. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| EndNew | Commits a pending new item to the collection. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object) |
| Find | This is used to find all topics and sub-topics that match the specified predicate recursively |
| FindCore | Searches for the index of the item that has the specified property descriptor with the specified value, if searching is implemented in a derived class; otherwise, a NotSupportedException. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| GenerateConceptualTopics | This creates copies of the conceptual topic files in the build process's working folder |
| GenerateTableOfContents | Generate the table of contents for the conceptual topics |
| GetEnumerator | Returns an enumerator that iterates through the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object) |
| IndexOf | Searches for the specified object and returns the zero-based index of the first occurrence within the entire Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| Insert | Inserts an element into the Collection<T> at the specified index. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| InsertItem |
This is overridden to set the inserted item's parent to this collection
(Overrides BindingList<T>.InsertItem(Int32, T)) |
| Load | Load the collection from the related file |
| MatchProjectFilesToTopics | This gets all possible content files from the project and attempts to match them to the topics in the collection by ID. |

| OnAddingNew | Raises the AddingNew event. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| OnListChanged | Raises the ListChanged event. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| Remove | Removes the first occurrence of a specific object from the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| RemoveAt | Removes the element at the specified index of the Collection<T>. (Inherited from Collection<Topic>) |
| RemoveItem |
This is overridden to clear the parent on the removed item
(Overrides BindingList<T>.RemoveItem(Int32)) |
| RemoveSortCore | Removes any sort applied with ApplySortCore(PropertyDescriptor, ListSortDirection) if sorting is implemented in a derived class; otherwise, raises NotSupportedException. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| ResetBindings | Raises a ListChanged event of type Reset. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
| ResetItem | Raises a ListChanged event of type ItemChanged for the item at the specified position. (Inherited from BindingList<Topic>) |
