Currently editors not shown as dialog do not work as the RadPropertyGrid editor is closed when focus is transferred to the dialog form.
How to create a PropertyGrid and initialize it like this,modify the 'segments' arraies as I modify the 'count'
Workaround: public class CustomPropertyGrid : RadPropertyGrid { public override string ThemeClassName { get { return typeof(RadPropertyGrid).FullName; } } protected override PropertyGridElement CreatePropertyGridElement() { return new CustomPropertyGridElement(); } } public class CustomPropertyGridElement : PropertyGridElement { protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType { get { return typeof(PropertyGridElement); } } protected override PropertyGridSplitElement CreateSplitElement() { return new CustomPropertyGridSplitElement(); } } public class CustomPropertyGridSplitElement : PropertyGridSplitElement { protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType { get { return typeof(PropertyGridSplitElement); } } protected override PropertyGridTableElement CreateTableElement() { return new CustomPropertyGridTableElement(); } } public class CustomPropertyGridTableElement:PropertyGridTableElement { protected override Type ThemeEffectiveType { get { return typeof(PropertyGridTableElement); } } public override bool ProcessKeyDown(KeyEventArgs e) { if (e.KeyData == Keys.Enter && ((PropertyGridItem)this.SelectedGridItem).PropertyType == typeof(bool)) { PropertyGridItem item = this.SelectedGridItem as PropertyGridItem; item.Value = !(bool)item.Value; return true; } return base.ProcessKeyDown(e); } }
This should work similar to RadGridView. Once should be able to manually set the height of on individual rows as well.
Currently, the ExpandableObjectConverter is the appropriate solution for adding nested properties in RadPropertyGrid. Using TypeConverters is quite a flexible mechanism that RadPropertyGrid offers: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/propertygrid/type-converters
It would be nice to have a more flexible and easy approach, e.g. PropertyStoreItem .Items collection that allows you to add nested properties.
I know that there is a RadRange Attribute but using it creates a dependency on Telerik.
Consider the scenario that the object to be configured via RadPropertyGrid is defined in a library that is used by multiple projects.
