Programmatically set Toolpart layout

Question

I am following this tutorial for creating a tool part: http://www.dhirajranka.com/?p=420

What I still have to understand is how to: 1) add a title to the custom tool part 2) adjust the various components (buttons dropdown lists etc)

I have been spoiled with the designer view but now that I cannot use it I am a bit lost.

regards

Answer 1

you need to add this line to your webpart's properties:

[ToolboxItemAttribute(false), WebBrowsable(true), WebDescription("Set the list name to use."), WebDisplayName("List Name"), Personalizable(PersonalizationScope.User)]
public string ListName{ 
    get{return customListName;}
    set{customListName = value;}
}

This works, right now I have this running over my SharePoint.

Best regards!
