Hi! Where should I put description for custom property. For example in this code:


[...]

namespace MakingWaves.Fiff.Episerver.Properties
{
	/// 
	/// Summary description for PropertyLongStringSimpleEditor.
	/// 	
	[Serializable]
	[PageDefinitionTypePlugIn]
	public class PropertyLongStringSimpleEditor : PropertyLongString
	{
		public PropertyLongStringSimpleEditor()
		{
		}

The PageDefinitionTypePlugIn attribute inherits from PlugInAttribute, which have a Description property. So, your code could look like this: [PageDefinitionTypePlugIn(Description="My description")] ... /Steve

hmm :) Good response but ... this not working ;( I checked: 1)

[PageDefinitionTypePlugIn(
		 DisplayName="Long string - simple editor",
		 Description="Long string - simple editor")
	]

public override string Description 
		{
			get
			{
				return "FIFF: Years - list";
			}
		}
		
		public override string DisplayName 
		{
			get
			{
				return "FIFF: Years - list";
			}
		}

These codes above not working when I try edit property. In combobox showing all available properties - name of this property is always this same as name of class - but I want to have my own cool ;) name here. Regards M.Kierepka

You can add a custom name for your property by using a language.xml file in the folder /lang:




 
  
   
    
	FIFF: Years - list
