Hi,
Is it possible to add custom drawn cells to a properties view to display
something other than the image and text returned by the label provider? If
so, could someone please share some information on how this is done?
E.g. I have an EMF object with a colour property and I would like to fill
the relevant cell in the properties sheet with a rectangle of the given
colour when the object is selected.
Thanks,
Jose

Jose,
I don't think the properties view API provides anything to support
custom drawing, fonts, or colors.

<pre wrap="">Hi Ed,
Thanks for the quick reply. The custom property editor itself is quite
straightforward to implement from the example in the EMF recipes. What I
don't seem to be able to do is provide a custom draw label provider to
render the contents of the property cell when the cell editor goes away.
The colour selector is one example but I am also interested in achieving
other effects such as changing the background or the font depending on the
value of the EMF structural feature. Say, make mandatory fields appear with
a light yellow background or read-only features appear with a light gray
background to give the user additional visual cues.
Regards,
Jose

I kind of doubt it. Generating an image of the right color perhaps with
the RBG value as the text might be a better bet. I wonder how
ColorCellEditor works. The EMF recipes describe how to support a
customized property editor...
