DxTagBox<TData, TValue>.EditFormat Property

Specifies the pattern used to format tag values.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

[Parameter]
public string EditFormat { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
String	The format pattern.

Remarks

Use the EditFormat property to format an editor’s tag text. This property allows you to format text of the tags displayed in ordinary (one-column) and multi-column TagBoxes.

Note

When you enable filter mode for a multi-column TagBox, the filter only takes into account data of the columns that are used in the editor’s format pattern.

The code below adds three columns to a TagBox and applies the {1} {2} format to the component’s tag values. This format specifies that the tag text should include values of the Name (VisibleIndex = 1) and Surname (VisibleIndex = 2) columns.

<DxTagBox Data="@Staff.DataSource"
          @bind-Values="@SelectedStaff"
          EditFormat="{1} {2}">
    <DxListEditorColumn FieldName="Id" Width="50px" />
    <DxListEditorColumn FieldName="FirstName" Caption="Name"/>
    <DxListEditorColumn FieldName="LastName" Caption="Surname"/>
</DxTagBox>

@code {
    IEnumerable<Person> SelectedStaff { get; set; } = new List<Person>() { Staff.DataSource[0] };
}

Run Demo: TagBox – Multiple Columns

If the EditFormat property’s value is not specified, the TextFieldName property specifies an editor’s tag text.
