    Custom Section v6 MVC - how to add property editors?

    Hello,

    I've successfuly added custom section in Umbraco backend, MVC way, as described in this blog post.

    The problem is how to add Umbraco property editors to my custom view. I would like to reuse some property editors, especially content and media pickers, maybe even editors from uComponents.

    I've made some research and found some resources on doing that in web forms mode: 

    Although didn't find anything on how to do that in MVC. 
    Questions are:
    1. Is it possible to reuse default property editors in mvc custom sections? 
    2. How to do that?
    3. Where I should look for examples? (maybe it's implemented for standard umbraco UI)

    That won't be possible, property editors are Web User Controls that need a <form runat="server"> directive, which will not work in MVC.

    Thanks for answer.

    How about Umbraco 7? Core property editors will be rewritten in js? If so, then it will be easier to use them in custom sections
