Custom Editor - How to create a custom editor allowing you to display a readonly HTML formatted text

This example illustrates how to create a custom editor to display a readonly HTML formatted text. In standalone mode you can use the LabelControl instead.

To show the HTML formatted text in a grid you can assign the RepositoryItemRichTextEdit to an appropriate column. However, the RichEditControl is quite a complex and "heavy" control. So, if you only need to show the HTML formatted text in the grid without editing it the best way to get it done is to assign a custom RepositoryItemHtmlLabel to a column. Note that the HtmlLabelViewInfo implements the IHeightAdaptable interface. So, this custom control supports the word wrapping feature and grid's row auto height feature will work properly.
