I'm trying to develop a designer that will allow a developer to drag and
drop a control onto the design surface and right click it to edit two
templates, the two templates being panels for other controls to be
dropped onto. This all works fine but what I really want to have is a
set of default controls already in the panels (couple of labels,
textboxes, that sort of thing) when the templates are edited. Is there
any way of adding default controls in this way at design time ? I'm
gradually coming to the conclusion that it can't be done !
Furthermore, if I do somehow manage to get a set of default controls to
appear, is it possible to make these read only whereas any other
controls dropped into the panel would be read/write ? From what I've
read so far it would appear that this is not currently possible, can
anyone confirm this ?
Any help/advice most gratefully received.
