I'm writing a User Control. One of the properties that I have is a URL for an image. I'm using the ImageUrlEditor, so in design time the user could select the image, that will represent the URL. But it doesn't show anything, I does not give me the option to select an image. So I guess I'm out of ideas at this point.

 This is the code I'm using:

[Browsable(true)]

[Editor(typeof(ImageUrlEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]

set { _iconImageURL = value; }

Try to add this attribute [UrlProperty] in addition to the Editor property.
[Browsable(true)]
[Category("MyConfiguration")]
[Editor(typeof(ImageUrlEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
[UrlProperty]
public string IconImageURL
{
  get { return _iconImageURL; }
  set { _iconImageURL = value; }
}

Hope this would resolve your issue

Thanks for the answer but it did not work. I just did an example.. created my own UITypeEditor on winforms, used it on a user control.. added it to the form, and it's working.. but I try to use this one on my Web User Control, and it just won't work.. and it seems I'm the only one with the issue.

Any other ideas?

Hi,

It seems you're trying to use the "UrlProperty" or "Editor" design-time attributes on an ASCX usercontrol to provide design-time Url editing functionality, these design-time properties(also the design-time services in IDE) is only appliable to custom web server control rather than ascx user controls. For ASCX usercontrols, they're template based, the property and inner control should be edited inline in the ascx template (or in the aspx page's inline template).

Thanks.
