We are using a modified version of the test Tree control. I wondered how we can get the Layout Editor to know about this widget type?

Edit Media/Tools/LayoutEditor/Settings/Widgets.xml - add your widget there. It won't be rendered as Tree control in LE, but it will be saved properly.

Will that make it show up as available widget type too?

If I want it to render properly, is that even possible without major code changes?

Can't properly get this working. Just trying to hack it into widgets.xml, I have to specify skins, etc... what would such an entry look like?

I have a TreeControlSkin.xml and I was hoping I could get this in to, but there are so many different XML files and directories I have no idea where, or if it's possible.
