It was a good idea from one of our client to show a highlight directly on the renderings which use any Personalization Rules in Experience Editor.
I found out to create a HTML extension method for it and then I can include it to renderings. Then I can call it like this:
This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

| <div> | |
| @Html.RenderPersonalizationRuleHightlight() | |
| </div> |
And here is the called HTML extension method:
This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters.

| public static HtmlString RenderPersonalizationRuleHightlight<T>(this HtmlHelper<T> htmlHelper) | |
| { | |
| var result = new MvcHtmlString(string.Empty); | |
| if (!Sitecore.Context.PageMode.IsExperienceEditor) | |
| { | |
| return result; | |
| } | |
| var sitecore = htmlHelper.Sitecore(); | |
| if (sitecore.CurrentRendering == null || sitecore.CurrentRendering.Properties == null) | |
| { | |
| return result; | |
| } | |
| string rulesString = sitecore.CurrentRendering.Properties["PersonlizationRules"]; | |
| if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(rulesString)) | |
| { | |
| return result; | |
| } | |
| try | |
| { | |
| var rules = XElement.Parse(rulesString); | |
| var elements = rules.Descendants().Elements("rule").ToList(); | |
| if (elements.Count() > 1 || elements.Any(e => e.Attribute("uid").Value != ID.Null.ToString())) | |
| { | |
| result = new MvcHtmlString("<div class='page-editor-dach-highlight'>This rendering uses personalization rules.</div>"); | |
| } | |
| } | |
| catch (Exception e) | |
| { | |
| Sitecore.Diagnostics.Log.Error("An error occured: ", e, typeof(HtmlHelperExtension)); | |
| } | |
| return result; | |
| } |
