Extended WPF Toolkit PropertyGrid with Custom Attributes

Question

I've searched the web for some introductory tutorial about the Extended WPF Toolkit PropertyGrid ( http://wpftoolkit.codeplex.com ) and custom attributes but didn't find. I've also downloaded the source code with the samples inside but that didn't help either. I'm a beginner with WPF so i might be missing something simple here. What i want to do is to create a simple Property Grid with some custom attributes. Does someone have a code snippet of something simple like a Property Grid with two attributes like Name and Age that are associated with some class like Person . I've already tried the snippet that they provide in the PropertyGrid documentation page on Codeplex but i couldn't get it to work. I've managed to put the Property Grid appear on the UI, but that's all, no custom attributes.

Answer 1

And your Name , Age are string/int types.. So if you assign your object as SelectedObject to PropertyGrid- it must do just fine. For example here is my code where i show application settings as property grid to the user:
wpf :

   <extToolkit:PropertyGrid
            Name="PropertyPanel"
            IsManipulationEnabled="True"></extToolkit:PropertyGrid>

codebehind :

 PropertyPanel.SelectedObject = Properties.Settings.Default;

PopertyGrid assigns templates automatically, depending on property type.
