ASPxPopupControlBase.ShowOnPageLoad Property

Gets or sets a value that specifies whether the window is automatically displayed when a client browser loads the page.

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.v24.2.dll

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

[DefaultValue(false)]
public virtual bool ShowOnPageLoad { get; set; }

<DefaultValue(False)>
Public Overridable Property ShowOnPageLoad As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	false	`true`, if the window is displayed on the page load; otherwise, `false`.

Remarks

The ShowOnPageLoad property can’t be changed during a callback.

Note

For ASPxPopupControl only:

If the ASPxPopupControl.Windows collection is not empty, the ShowOnPageLoad property is not in effect, and cannot be used to specify a common page load behavior for all popup windows. In this case, use the PopupWindow.ShowOnPageLoad property of individual popup windows from the collection.
