Remarks
The LayoutEditorPart class is an editor control that derives from the EditorPart class and is used to edit properties that affect the layout of an associated WebPart or GenericWebPart control.
For more information on the LayoutEditorPart and Web Parts controls, see ASP.NET Web Parts Pages.
Example
The following code example demonstrates how to use the LayoutEditorPart control declaratively in a Web Parts scenario using the Calendar control. The Web page allows a user to enter edit mode to edit certain aspects of the Calendar control. The Toggle Scope button switches the page to user or shared personalization scope. The Edit Mode and Browse Mode buttons each switch the page into the appropriate display mode. Notice that in the <script> tag section of the file, two of the methods that handle events use the Personalization property to access useful members of the underlying object. Specifically, these methods use the ToggleScope method and the Scope property on the object that was accessed through the Personalization property.
For the code example to run, you also must enable one or more users to personalize pages in shared scope. To do this, add an entry to the Web.config file, in the webParts Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema).
