AutoCompleteBoxPropertiesBase.IncrementalFilteringMode Property

Gets or sets a value that specifies the filtering mode of the editor.

Namespace: DevExpress.Web

Assembly: DevExpress.Web.v24.2.dll

Declaration

[DefaultValue(IncrementalFilteringMode.Contains)]
public virtual IncrementalFilteringMode IncrementalFilteringMode { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
IncrementalFilteringMode Contains

One of the IncrementalFilteringMode enumeration values.

Available values:

Name Description
Contains

The editor filters items that contain the filter string.

StartsWith

The editor filters items that begin with the filter string.

None

The editor does not filter items.

Remarks

The editor allows its items to be filtered in a drop down window by the text typed in the editor’s input box. Use the IncrementalFilteringMode property to specify the editor’s filter mode.

When callbacks are enabled (e.g., by setting the AutoCompleteBoxPropertiesBase.EnableCallbackMode property to true), the incremental filtering feature functions via callbacks to the server.

Note

The IncrementalFilteringMode property synchronizes its value with the editor’s ASPxAutoCompleteBoxBase.IncrementalFilteringMode property.

Example

Web Forms approach:

Note

For a full example, see the ASPxComboBox - Cascading Combo Boxes demo.

<dx:ASPxComboBox runat="server" ID="CmbCountry" DropDownStyle="DropDownList" IncrementalFilteringMode="StartsWith"
    TextField="CountryName" ValueField="CountryName" Width="100%" DataSourceID="CountriesDataSource"
    EnableSynchronization="False">
    <ClientSideEvents SelectedIndexChanged="function(s, e) { OnCountryChanged(s); }" />
</dx:ASPxComboBox>

MVC approach (Token Box):

@Html.DevExpress().TokenBox(settings =>
{
    settings.Name = "tokenBox1";

    settings.Properties.TextField = "Name";
    settings.Properties.ValueField = "Email";

    settings.Properties.IncrementalFilteringMode = IncrementalFilteringMode.StartsWith;
    settings.Properties.IncrementalFilteringDelay = 500;
}).BindList(Model).GetHtml()
