11 @class wxPGEditor
12
13 Base class for custom wxPropertyGrid editors.
14
15 @remarks
16 - Names of built-in property editors are: TextCtrl, Choice,
17 ComboBox, CheckBox, TextCtrlAndButton, and ChoiceAndButton. Additional
18 editors include SpinCtrl and DatePickerCtrl, but using them requires
19 calling wxPropertyGrid::RegisterAdditionalEditors() prior use.
20
21 - Pointer to built-in editor is available as wxPGEditor_EditorName
22 (eg. wxPGEditor_TextCtrl).
23
24 - Before you start using new editor you just created, you need to register
25 it using static function
26 wxPropertyGrid::RegisterEditorClass(), with code like this:
27 @code
28 wxPGEditor* editorPointer = wxPropertyGrid::RegisterEditorClass(new MyEditorClass(), "MyEditor");
29 @endcode
30 After that, wxPropertyGrid will take ownership of the given object, but
31 you should still store editorPointer somewhere, so you can pass it to
32 wxPGProperty::SetEditor(), or return it from wxPGEditor::DoGetEditorClass().

73 - Unlike in previous version of wxPropertyGrid, it is no longer
74 necessary to call wxEvtHandler::Connect() for interesting editor
75 events. Instead, all events from control are now automatically
76 forwarded to wxPGEditor::OnEvent() and wxPGProperty::OnEvent().

225
226 // Finally, move buttons-subwindow to correct position and make sure
227 // returned wxPGWindowList contains our custom button list.

266 @code
267 // Register editor class - needs only to be called once
268 wxPGEditor* multiButtonEditor = new wxSampleMultiButtonEditor();
269 wxPropertyGrid::RegisterEditorClass( multiButtonEditor );

271 // Insert the property that will have multiple buttons
272 propGrid->Append( new wxLongStringProperty("MultipleButtons", wxPG_LABEL) );
273
274 // Change property to use editor created in the previous code segment
