Hello, i would like to know if there's a way to modify the data fields editors in the AutoGeneratingFieldEventArgs event.
I can modify things like e.DataField.Label or e.DataField.Height but i wold like to know how to acces the editor fields (more specific, i want to modify let's say, the height, width or background color of the control).
Also in this event can i modify the type of the control that is being generate for a specific property?
Something like: if (e.PropertyName == "Name") choose a type for the generated control.
Thank you.

Hi John,
Yes you can , the DataField is a content control , you may set a content template to it and place arbitrary controls inside. You may do this in the autogenerating event , and you may also do this in XAML as demonstrated here and here.
There actually two options - set the content or set the contenttempalte ( I recommend the second one ) .
