If you write custom control’s like class LabelEx:Label, and override it’s Text property, then everytime you set Text property in Designer and compile the code, Visual Studio will clear content of Text property.

// Solution:

[Browsable(true)]
[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Visible)]      //!!!
public override string Text {
     get { return checkBox1.Text; }
     set { checkBox1.Text = value; }
