paDialog and displaying properties...

[David HAROUCHE]

How could I have the published properties of a TPersistent displayed inside
the Inspector, meanwhile I set paDialog as an attribute of its property
editor, so I can open a
modal DialogBox, via Edit ?

So you want something like a TFont property? I believe the source for
that comes with Delphi.

I found by Google that there is a TClassProperty...and that fits to my
requirements...

MyPackage.dpk

TForm1 is declared in Unit1.pas
TForm2 = class(TForm1) in Unit2.pas
TMyEditor = class(TClassProperty) in Unit3.pas with [paDialog,
paSubProperties] set, and Edit overriden...

procedure TMyEditor.Edit;

begin
with TForm2.Create(nil)
do begin
ShowModal;

Free;
end;
end;

[Error] D3Maths.pas(2221): Undeclared identifier: 'ShowModal'

No matter... I found...

I used a base class named TWorkArea, already defined in ComCtrls.Pas...

Ahem... I rather think that is the point of buying
a more expensive version of Delphi...!
ie, anything other than the Personal/Explorer version.
