Custom Property Editor. Show only name of node

[Blanca Calderon]

Hi,

I would like to have my own property editor with only one property, the name of the node. What is the property who show me this?

I've tried this but it doesn't work.

 /// Customer class to be displayed in the property grid

    /// </summary>

    /// 

    [DefaultPropertyAttribute("Name")]

    class PropertyPV

    {

        private string _name;      

        

        [CategoryAttribute("General"), DescriptionAttribute("Name")]

        public string Name

        {

            get

            {

                return _name;

            }

            set

            {

                _name = value;

            }

        }      

        public PropertyPV()

{

//

// TODO: Add constructor logic here

//

}

Hi Blanca,
Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support.     

By default, diagram’s property container which displays all properties of the diagram’s nodes while assigning the diagram into the PropertyEditor’s “Diagram”. If you want to display custom property of the node, please create the PropertyGrid instead of PropertyEditor and use the PropertyGrid’s “Selectedobject” property to display the custom property of the node. Please refer to the attached code example and sample.

Code example: [C#] Node node = evtArgs.Element as Node; if (node.PropertyBag.Keys.Count == 0) { node.PropertyBag.Add("Name", node.Name); } if (node.PropertyBag.Keys.Count > 0) { CommonProperties properties = new CommonProperties(); properties.Name = node.PropertyBag["Name"].ToString(); propertyGrid1.SelectedObject = properties; } Sample: Sample

However we have created another sample for displaying only the custom properties (which is defined in customized class) in PropertyEditor. Please create the custom class inherited from TypeConvertor class and use TypeDescriptor.CreateProperty() method to add custom property name to display properties you want.

Sample: Sample
