my understanding is that the "default True" declaration prevents the ui
streaming the property to .dfm etc when the value is in its default
state. this apparantly saves a lot of space, speeds form loading etc.
you also need (usually in the .create) to set the actual value.
i usually do something like:
const
defAutoTab=true;
property AutoTab: Boolean read FAutoTab write FAutoTab default
defAutoTab;
{in the constuctor}
FAutoTab:=defAutoTab
