These attributes control specific types of controls generated by Iron Speed Designer. Generally these attributes govern specific portions of code that is generated for your application depending on the selected attributes and their values.
The ASP.NET controls have a wide variety of properties that can be used to govern the controls’ behaviors. You can enter any .NET control property into the Attributes tab and Iron Speed Designer will insert them into the generated control tags.

AutoPostBack |
The default behavior for dropdown filters generated by Iron Speed Designer is to postback an event immediately when a new selection is made. This sometimes becomes inconvenient when there are multiple filters and the end users would prefer to select from multiple filters first, and then press a Go button to begin the process of filtering. If you have a “Go” button to start the filtering process (AutoPostBack = False), your application must instruct the table control to update itself when the user presses the Go button. However, instead of notifying the table control, it’s better to notify the filter control(s) and let it (them) forward the message to the table control. This ensures that the table control gets notified by the filter control rather than from the button control.
