Then you want alias this.
class Window : Control{
Events event;
alias event this
.
}
and now when you write
form.click = bla_bla;
Compiler first checks if form.click compiles and if it doesnt
it then it tries form.event.click
Wow !!!
What a perfect solution ! That is what i wanted. Thanks a lot
friend. :)
The more i practice D, the more i am loving it. I am very sad
that i delayed to start learning D only because of semicolons and
curly braces. But now i recognizes that how beautiful this
language is.

You can make some of members be other structs that you
aggregate together.
That's a good idea but there is a problem.
As per your idea--
```
struct Events{
uint click;
uint shown;
uint move;
}
class Window : Control{
Events event;
.
}
// Now, we need to use like this
auto form= new Window();
form.event.click = bla_bla;
// I really want to use like this
auto form= new Window();
form.click = bla_bla;
```
