Body
The <a href="http://gitscc.codeplex.com" rel="noreferrer">Git Source Control Provider</a> is an open source extension includes a tool pane that embeds a standard editor as a control within a custom WPF tool window. I would use this code as a reference for any Visual Studio 2010+ extension where I wanted to host an editor window in some custom location. <ul> <li><a href="https://github.com/yysun/Git-Source-Control-Provider/blob/master/PendingChangesView.xaml" rel="noreferrer"><code>PendingChangesView.xaml</code></a> includes a <code>ContentControl</code> named <code>DiffEditor</code>, the content of which will be the editor.</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/yysun/Git-Source-Control-Provider/blob/master/PendingChangesView.xaml.cs" rel="noreferrer"><code>PendingChangesView.xaml.cs</code></a> includes a method <code>ShowFile</code>, which calls a method to create the editor control and assigns the result as the content of <code>DiffEditor</code>.</li> <li><a href="https://github.com/yysun/Git-Source-Control-Provider/blob/master/ToolWindowWithEditor.cs" rel="noreferrer"><code>ToolWindowWithEditor.cs</code></a> includes a method <code>SetDisplayedFile</code> which returns a <code>Tuple<Control, IVsTextView></code> interface, which provides access to a <code>Control</code> that can be added to a <code>ContentControl</code> as well as the <code>IVsTextView</code> for the text view. The heavy lifting is in this method.</li> </ul> Note that the <code>SetDisplayedFile</code> method includes several lines with the following form: <pre><code>textViewHost.TextView.Options.SetOptionValue({name}, {value}); </code></pre> These lines perform key functionality for the Git Source Control Provider such as removing margins and making the window read only. There are many options available, so you'll want to review the documentation for <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.visualstudio.text.editor.defaulttextviewoptions.aspx" rel="noreferrer"><code>DefaultTextViewOptions</code></a> and <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.visualstudio.text.editor.defaulttextviewhostoptions.aspx" rel="noreferrer"><code>DefaultTextViewHostOptions</code></a> to apply the ones appropriate for your particular extension.

1. COThis looks very promising and at the very least should introduce me to this InvisibleEditor manager. I'll be looking more into this code this weekend.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
