    Custom property editor erase all control properties

    Hi,

    I have a custom control in which i have a collection property named
    "Columns".

    this collection property add/remove column objects.
    in my Column class i have a property named Alignment which use a custom
    property editor.

    when this property editor is not linked to this property,

    My property grid displays all properties of my Column object.
    When my custom UIeditor is linked via
    [Editor(typeof(A lignmentDropDow nEditor), typeof(UITypeEd itor))] all
    properties of my Column object are hidden (property grid is empty of not
    only property value, but also categories and property names...

    where could be the mistake ?
    Could it come from property converter ?
    this property is in fact a class which consists of 2 public properties :
    Alignment -Vertical
    Alignment -Horizontal

    for information, my UIEditor is a dropdown UIEditor.

    thanks a lot,

    RAF.

      Ok, i found the problem... :-)

      but while my custom UIEditor is based on a UserControl of 66 x 66
      pixels, it is displayed by property editor like completly reduce and
      only on the left half of the "form" of dropdown window.

      How is it possible ?

      thx.

      RAF.

          RAF,

          The control is going to be sized by the property grid, not by you. You
          have to take into account the size that you are given, and adjust your
          control accordingly. If this doesn't work for you, then you would be better
          off using a modal dialog.
