I would create an user controls in .net to use into back-end of Umbraco. This controls can be import in document type. How I can proceed to develop it? Must be create a package or are there other way? Where I can found specific documentation about this?
Other thing: how I can get the current Document into User Controls without handle Save event?
For example: I have an user control used as data type with a button in backend. When the user click this button, I need to read the current document. How I can do this?
Extend Umbraco back-end with user controls
Hi all,
I would create an user controls in .net to use into back-end of Umbraco. This controls can be import in document type. How I can proceed to develop it? Must be create a package or are there other way? Where I can found specific documentation about this?
Thank's a lot

Thanks Jeroen for your reply.

You could use this:
Document document =new Document(Convert.ToInt32(HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString["id"]));
