Editor Document Modifiers - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 18 years ago by Greg Shaffer - Boulder

Hi,

I do a lot of my Document setup in my Editor's constructor. This works great, until I copy/paste the control in design mode, which causes a new Document to be created in the InitializeComponent function. If I don't go and manually remove this autogened code, then I lose my setup.

It would be ideal for my situation if I could override the Editor's Document property, and then I could do my setup in the setter of that property.

Is it possible to make the Editor's Document property virtual?

Thanks,
Greg

We can make it virtual but you'd have to end up calling the base property setting if you wanted to assign a Document. Is that ok?

Hi,

That is fine. I can call the base version. Maybe it would be better to add an event like "DocumentChanged" or something like that to the Editor. That way, you can avoid getting support inquiries for broken editors.

Ok the SyntaxEditor.DocumentChanged event has been added for the next maintenance release that fires when the SyntaxEditor.Document property is changed.
