Removing the Default Editor Parts from SharePoint Web Parts
I was recently asked how to remove the Editor Parts (Appearance, Layout, Advanced, etc) from custom Web Parts.
class MyEditorPart : EditorPart
{
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{ // this line hides the default EditorParts
Parent.Controls[2].Visible = false;
base.CreateChildControls();
}
public override bool ApplyChanges()
{
// do stuff here
return true;
}
public override void SyncChanges()
{
// do stuff here
}
}
public class MyWebPart : WebPart
{
public override EditorPartCollection CreateEditorParts()
{
ArrayList aryParts = new ArrayList();
MyEditorPart myEditor = new MyEditorPart();
myEditor.ID = this.ID + "_myEditorPart";
aryParts.Add(myEditor);
return new EditorPartCollection(aryParts);
}
// do more stuff here...
}
