Hi dear community,
At the bottom of the reference page for modifying EDTs here by extensions it mentions the following tip:
Tip: Instead of extending an existing EDT, you can create a new one, deriving it from the existing EDT. This allows you to edit more properties than you could edit using the extension approach. This means that you would need to modify the fields using this EDT to use your new EDT.
How would we do this in Visual studio? And is there a reason why we would not use this new method instead of extensions, it seems like by deriving from an existing
EDT I have the liberty of changing whatever property I want versus the extensions in which I can only change few properties (label, help text etc)
Thanks in advance
