Embed custom control to CMFCPropertyGridCtrl Property Item

Question

I want to embed two generic buttons like "Select" and "Cancel" to CMFCPropertyGridCtrl property line. Is there a painless way to do that?

Answer 1

Found a solution myself. You can use OnCreateEditor virtual method to send a custom control to a property. Note, that it will be shown on property edit. Another important note, that CMFCPropertyGridCtrl calls OnCreateEditor each time the user edits the property but before the control is destroyed it deletes the last received CWnd object itself. You should consider that. I have found no notes about that in MSDN CMFCPropertyGridProperty documentation (you know what to say).
