I've started a web control library project and can build
my own controls to add to the toolbox in the .NET
environment. The problem I'm having is I want to create a
control just like the HTML table where I could drag my
control on the page and then drag and drop other controls
into the cells of the table. I've tried creating my own
and I tried to inherit from
system.ui.htmlc ontrols.htmltab le but I can not get it to
have the borders and cells when I drag my control onto a
form. It just says [xxxTable "xxxTable1"] on the
control. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might
make a control so developers can drop other controls into
my table control. Also, I'm trying to create my own b/c I
want to limit the functionality a develope can have with
the table and I only want them to start with one row and
two cells.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Kyle,
You'll need to deal with design-time stuff. Take a look at the docs for
everything related to design-time, ie ControlDesigner , etc.

Hi Kyle,
You need to create a Custom Designer class for your control. Here is the URL
of an article in the .Net SDK on developing Custom Designer classes: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...omdesigner.asp

I'm creating a custom control, in which I would render an image with

to make my control more useable when I will insert it in my pages.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
