Adding style to the string property in edit mode
Vote:
Hi.
I want to increase the height and width of the input field to a string property in edit mode. I want all the 255 letters to be visible at the same time, as it is in the long string and the XHTML string. Any easy way to do this?
BR,
Tore

You will need to create a custom property that inherits from PropertyString. Override the CreateChildControls and add the PageDefinitionTypePlugIn attribute to your class. Infact here is an example of the override method:
#15069
public override void CreateChildControls(string renderType, System.Web.UI.Control container)
{
switch( renderType.ToLower() )
{
case "edit":
TextBox inputTextBox = new TextBox();
inputTextBox.TextMode = TextBoxMode.MultiLine;
inputTextBox.Rows = 5;
inputTextBox.Columns = 50;
inputTextBox.MaxLength = 255;
inputTextBox.Text = this.String;
CopyWebAttributes( container, inputTextBox);
container.Controls.Add(inputTextBox);
container.Controls.Add(CreateParseValidator(inputTextBox));
break;
default:
base.CreateChildControls( renderType, container );
break;
}
}
