Remarks
If a mask specified via the MaskSettings.Mask property contains strict parts (such as “0”) restricting user input, specific validation of the entered value against the specified mask is performed on submitting the value. You can use the ErrorText property to define an explanatory text to be displayed when this mask-specific validation fails.
The error text can be displayed either within an editor’s error frame, or within an error image’s tooltip. This behavior is defined by settings available via an editor’s ASPxEdit.ValidationSettings property (in particular, by the ValidationSettings.ErrorDisplayMode property).
Example
MVC:
@Html.DevExpress().TextBox(settings => {
settings.Name = "textBox3";
settings.Width = Unit.Percentage(100);
settings.Properties.MaskSettings.Mask = "+1 (999) 000-0000";
settings.Properties.MaskSettings.IncludeLiterals = MaskIncludeLiteralsMode.None;
settings.Properties.MaskSettings.ErrorText = "Invalid Phone Number";
settings.Properties.ValidationSettings.Display = Display.Dynamic;
