PasswordPropertyText attribute not working?

Question

Hi

I added a [PasswordPropertyText(true)] attribute to one of my customactivity's variable

[PasswordPropertyText(true)]
public String Password { get; set; }

However in the propertyview, this property iss still displayed as plain text. What should I do to make it obscured with asterisk when the user types it?

Hi, Louis

To show a password textbox in the property view. you can extend the property grid with your own code.
