Does anyone have an example or idea on embedding a user control within the cell (not drop down editor button) of a cell?
Currently I'm instantiating the usercontrol at runtime from class inheriting EmbeddableEditorBase, but I can't seem to get
the control to paint within the cell. I am also new to the Embeddable Editor archtecture so if anyone knows any good reference
sites that would be helpful. Thanks!
Oh... also, there's a sample of creating an editor. It's called the RichTextEmbeddableEditor sample. It's installed along with the rest of the NetAdvantage samples, which I think comes with the SDK now.
Creating your own editor is a very big task and probably requires several days, if not weeks, of coding - depending on the complexity of your editor and how familiar you are with the editors and how they work.If you intend to create your own editor, I recommend that you get a subscription to NetAdvantage that includes source code so you can use the existing editors as an example.
Generally, it's much easier to use or modify an existing editor to do what you need, rather than create a whole new editor on your own.
