I've created a custom editor for a special data type that is used in several
of my applications. I can use that editor when I incorporate the editor
class into my project and tag the properties that are supposed to use it,
but I was wondering if there was a way to make my editor accessible globally
to all projects. I'd like to have that editor pop up whenever VS sees an
object of the special type the same way it does when it sees one of the
special types that it already understands (like System.Drawing.Color, for
example). It must be possible, but I don't even know where to start looking
for instructions to put something like this together.
Thanks for the help.
