[MonoDevelop] Adding own component to toolbox

[Blazi]

Hello!

Thanks for the answer. It works like a charm... but... I added my 
UniversalComboBox and in MainWindow.cs there is a line:

this.universalcomboboxgtksharp1 = global::Gtk.ComboBox.NewText ();

It says it's an error: 
"MonoDevelop/Projects/MonoTest/MonoTest/gtk-gui/MainWindow.cs(49,49): 
Error CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type `Gtk.ComboBox' to 
`BrajanStuffGTKSharp.GTKSharpHelpers.UniversalComboBoxGTKSharp'. An 
explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?) (CS0266) (MonoTest)";


When I try typing this by hand (MS VS2010 normally does something like 
this automatically without using any static functions) 
"this.universalcomboboxgtksharp1 =  new 
BrajanStuffGTKSharp.GTKSharpHelpers.UniversalComboBoxGTKSharp()";

It almost works but MonoDevelop seems to overwrite this file with 
autogenerated one from Designer and asks over and over, which copy to 
use... simple thing... big problem...

How can I solve this?
