Well I found the problem :-)
Looking through StrEdit.pas (property editor) I find:
(line 265)
if (TObject(Component) is TComponent) and
(Component.Owner = Self.Designer.GetRoot) then
begin
Ident := Self.Designer.GetRoot.Name + DotSep +
Component.Name + DotSep + GetName;
Module := ModuleServices.FindModule(Ident);
and:
(line 281)
CodeWndBtn.Enabled := Ident <> '';
It seams the editor is only allowed to setup a code module in the IDE if
the object that owns the property is a component on the base form.
I tried editing this file and added in a check for a collection item but
it wouldn't compile due to a missing DesignConst.dcu file, however I think
if I really want this functionality (its not needed, wuld just be nice and
it was bugging me) I'll just copy this file and make my own... Which I
think I'm going to do just now :)
