Hello, The SimpleURLChooserEditor example in the SDF is the Java implementation of a sample form control. It is not used in the SDF project, however you can write a simple CSS file to add it on some element like this: myElement { content: oxy_editor( rendererClassName, "ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.editor.SimpleURLChooserEditor", swingEditorClassName, "ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.editor.SimpleURLChooserEditor", edit, "@my_attr", columns, 20 ) } The SimpleURLChooserEditor is present in Oxygen's classpath and so the previous CSS is all you need. If you implement your own custom form control there is one additional step to be performed: you must pack it inside a JAR file and add it in the framework's classpath [1]. The steps required for a custom form controls are: - download the authorSDK [2] - implement the custom form control by extending ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.editor.InplaceEditorRendererAdapter. You can also take a look at ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.editor.AbstractInplaceEditor (it offers some default implementations and some listeners management) - pack the previous implementation in a JAR - go to Oxygen and add the JAR inside the Classpath tab of the framework [3] - bind the form control in the CSS as described both in [4] and also above.

Hi, I am trying to implement a custom form control and I see that the samples of the SDF contains the java source of the SimpleURLChooserEditor. However, I don't see anything in the SDF css calling it like it mentions in the dev guide - "http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/implementing-custom-form-contr...".
I saw the blog post at "http://blog.oxygenxml.com/" but that did not clarify things for me. It would be great if I could get step-by-step instructions on how to do this.
Thanks, Nathan
