I need to write my own custom text edit control.. but I'm not sure where to
start - I've never written a custom control... the features I want are
somewhat similar to the VS .Net text editor - text colouring, collapsible
regions etc... I haven't been able to find anything that could achieve that
which is free...
So what is the suggested starting point? Can I make some kind of control
that derives from a RichEdit box and write my own paint methods? Should I
build a completely custom user control? Any suggestions, or pointers to
example source code of similar controls would be appreciated!
