"""
Editor factory that overrides certain attributes of the default editor.

For example, the default editor for Range(low=0, high=1500) has
'1500' as the upper label.  To change it to 'Max' instead, use

my_range = Range(low=0, high=1500,
                 editor=DefaultOverride(high_label='Max'))

Alternatively, the override can also be specified in the view:

View(Item('my_range', editor=DefaultOverride(high_label='Max'))
