Hi !

I created a windows control with one password property. I would like that the password appear as "*" when typed in property window.

I tryed to create a TypeEditor for the password property and overrides the paintValue method, but this doesn't work. I have to problems in result : The "*" appears as a graphical element, not text, and the password still appears in clear text.

I don't know if I'm using the correct approach for this problem, can someone help ?

Thanks !

Public Class EditorSenha
   Inherits System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor

   Public Overloads Overrides Function GetEditStyle(ByVal context As System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext) As System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditorEditStyle
       GetEditStyle = System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditorEditStyle.None
   End Function

   Public Overloads Overrides Function GetPaintValueSupported(ByVal context As System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext) As Boolean
       Return (True)
   End Function

   Public Overloads Overrides Sub PaintValue(ByVal e As System.Drawing.Design.PaintValueEventArgs)
       Dim o As Object = e.Value
       Dim b As Brush = New SolidBrush(Color.Red)
       Dim f As Font = New Font("Times New Roman", 10)
       Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics

       g.DrawString("*****", f, b, e.Bounds.X, e.Bounds.Y)

   End Sub

End Class
