Hi! Is there anyone who can show me how to implement a simple property separator (like the one in this 4.x sample http://www.episerver.com/en/EPiServer_Knowledge_Center/Download2/Code-Samples/2636/2638/) in CMS? Thank you very much :)

Hi Tony! Use Add > New Item in Visual Studio to create a Custom Property. Notice that one main difference is that the rendering is moved to a separate class PropertyXXXControl. It could look something like this:



    [Serializable]
    [PageDefinitionTypePlugIn(DisplayName="Skillelinje", 
                            Description="Skillelinje for redigeringsmodus.")]
    public class PropertyDivider : EPiServer.Core.PropertyNumber
    {
        // TODO: Override members of EPiServer.Core.PropertyNumber to provide your own logic.


        public override EPiServer.Core.IPropertyControl CreatePropertyControl()
        {
            return new PropertyDividerControl();
        }

    }

------------

    public class PropertyDividerControl : EPiServer.Web.PropertyControls.PropertyDataControl
    {
        /*
        Override CreateXXXControls to control the appearance of the property data in different rendering conditions.

        public override void CreateDefaultControls()        - Used when rendering the view mode.
        public override void CreateEditControls()           - Used when rendering the property in edit mode.
        public override void CreateOnPageEditControls()     - used when rendering the property for "On Page Edit".

        */

        public override void CreateEditControls()
        {
            string divTag = "

Hi Fredrik and everyone else,

We're interested in the same thing as Tony is asking for so if Fredrik, or someone else who has a similar solution, could share the code for a separator property we'd really appreciate it.

Best regards

Martin
