Custom Editboxes

Hi Rithesh,

There is quite a bit of information on making and customizing your own EditBox in the documentation under Topics>Actipro Editors>Part Editors, if you would like a good reference. As far as drop downs you will want to set the DropDownButtonVisibility to visible, and if you want you can also set the DropDownButtonInactiveVisibility for when the control isn't active. You can put your custom content in DropDownContent, or use the DropDownContentTemplate and DropDownContentTemplateSelector properties. I recommend reading more in the documentation as it has much more information on your customization options.

Hi,

   Thanks a lot. I am able to support customDropdownEditBox now.

I observed the close button is implemented in the editor, does it mean that the customEditors need to have their own close button? This means that the custom editors will have close buttons which looks different from that of Brush, Color and Date Editors. Is there a close button component I can reuse or should I create my own? Or is there a container which has the close button, upon which I can add my custom editor as a child?

regards,

Rithesh

Hi Rithesh,

If you set the style of your close button to {DynamicResource {x:Static themes:EditorsResourceKeys.CloseButtonStyleKey}} then it should match the ones we use.
