Property Paths

You can access this nested property as listed below:

Library	Object Type	Path to EndMark
ASP.NET MVC Extensions	HtmlEditorSettings	.SettingsPlaceholders .EndMark
ASP.NET Web Forms Controls	ASPxHtmlEditor	.SettingsPlaceholders .EndMark

Remarks

By default, placeholders are surrounded with curly braces {}. Use the HtmlEditorPlaceholdersSettings.StartMark property to specify a custom character(s) that will be used as the beginning of the placeholder instead of default left curly brace ({). To specify which character(s) should be used instead of the right curly brace (}), use the EndMark property.

To replace placeholders with the required values, use the client-side ASPxClientHtmlEditor.ReplacePlaceholders or server-side ASPxHtmlEditor.ReplacePlaceholders method.

The collection of placeholders available for end-users is accessed by the ASPxHtmlEditor.Placeholders property.

Example

This example illustrates how to use the HtmlEditorPlaceholdersSettings.StartMark and HtmlEditorPlaceholdersSettings.EndMark properties to specify custom characters that will be displayed at the beginning and at the end of placeholders, respectively.
