Category editors are derived from the NCategoryEditor class. They are created for each member category, and are usually used to arrange the items that belong to that category. Since categories are hierarchical, the editors that are aggregated by a category editor can be either member editors (property editors or child slot editors), or other category editors.
Following is a list of the most commonly used category editors:
| Category Editor Type | Description |
|---|---|
| NListGroupCategoryEditor | Embeds the contained editors in a list editor group. The titles of the editors are displayed in a list box on the left side of a splitter, and the currently selected editor is displayed in the right pane of the splitter. |
| NStackCategoryEditor | Embeds the contained editors in an NStackPanel. It has many predefined factories for vertical and horizontal arrangements. |
| NTabCategoryEditor | Embeds the contained editors in an NTab. The tab header texts are the editor titles. |
| NTableFlowCategoryEditor | Embeds the contained editors in an NTableFlowPanel. |
| NWrapFlowCategoryEditor | Embeds the contained editors in an NWrapFlowPanel. |
