Looks like it only happens when the overriding method also has the attribute .

However, you can override attributes of the same type or apply additional attributes to the derived component. The following code fragment shows a custom control that overrides the Text property inherited from Control by overriding the BrowsableAttribute attribute applied in the base class. Visual Basic

Public Class MyControl
   Inherits Control
   ' The base class has [Browsable(true)] applied to the Text property.
     _
   Public Overrides Property [Text]() As String
      ...
   End Property 
   ...
End Class
