Enum Properties

Question

Can I set static properties for an enum? for example: enum animal{ cat dog elephant } if something is of type animal.elephant it can fetch a color value always returning grey?

what you mean is you can have a property that you send him the current Enum and receive the PropertyValue by that Enum and it is applyable. here is a sample enum Animal { cat dog } private Animal selectedAnimal = Animal.cat; public Color AnimalColor { get{switch ( selectedAnimal ) { case Animal.Cat: return Color.Gray default: return Color.None; } } }
