Remarks
The WebPartManagerDesigner class provides a bare-minimum design-time rendering of the WebPartManager control. It appears on the design surface as a plain gray box showing the name of the class and the ID of the current WebPartManager. You can change the rendering of a custom WebPartManager control by overriding the GetDesignTimeHtml method in the same manner as with any standard ControlDesigner. The UsePreviewControl property is overridden to always return true
.
