Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the EditorPartChrome class to override the default rendering of EditorPart controls in an EditorZoneBase zone.

The code example has three parts:

A user control that enables you to change display modes on a Web Parts page.
A Web page that hosts all the controls in the example.
A class that contains the source code for a custom EditorPartChrome class and EditorZoneBase zone.

The first part of the code example is the user control. The source code for the user control comes from another topic. For this code example to work, you need to obtain the .ascx file for the user control from the Walkthrough: Changing Display Modes on a Web Parts Page topic, and place the file in the same folder as the .aspx page in this code example.

The second part of the example is the Web page. Note that there is a Register directive near the top of the file to register the compiled component and a tag prefix. Also note that the page references the custom editor zone using the element <aspSample:MyEditorZone>.

The third part of the example contains the implementation of the custom editor part chrome and editor part zone. MyEditorZone extends EditorZone and overrides CreateEditorPartChrome to return the custom editor part chrome. MyEditorPartChrome changes the background color of the editor part control in the CreateEditorPartChromeStyle method. The background color of the zone is changed in the PerformPreRender method, and text is added to the editor part in the RenderPartContents method.

Remarks

Chrome refers to the peripheral user interface (UI) elements that frame each Web Parts control or server control contained in a zone. The chrome for a control includes its border, its title bar, and the icons, title text, and verbs menu that appear within the title bar. The appearance of the chrome is set at the zone level, and applies to all the controls in the zone.

The Web Parts control set uses the EditorPartChrome class to render the chrome for EditorPart controls. Additionally, this class provides a way for developers to customize the rendering of any EditorPart controls in an EditorZoneBase zone. For example, you can override the CreateEditorPartChromeStyle method to customize some specific style attributes defined in the EditorZoneBase zone.

The EditorPartChrome class contains several important methods that are useful when you want to override the rendering of EditorPart controls. One is the EditorPartChrome constructor, which you use when you override the CreateEditorPartChrome method in a custom EditorZoneBase class to create an instance of your custom EditorPartChrome object. Another useful method is the RenderPartContents method, which you can use to control the rendering of the content area of controls in a zone (as opposed to chrome elements such as headers, footers, and title bars). Finally, if you want complete programmatic control over all aspects of rendering the EditorPart controls, you can override the RenderEditorPart method.

Notes to Inheritors

If you inherit from the EditorPartChrome class, you must create a customized EditorZone zone to return your customized EditorPartChrome class. The Example section of this class overview demonstrates how to create a customized EditorZone zone to return a customized EditorPartChrome class
