An editing field for changing the content of text controls in Print Preview.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v18.1.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public class TextEditingField :
    EditingField

VB.NET

Public Class TextEditingField
    Inherits EditingField

Remarks

Setting the EditOptions.Enabled property to true for a label or its descendant results in one or more TextEditingField being added to the PrintingSystemBase.EditingFields collection

A TextEditingField object provides a control’s edit options and indicates the current field value (EditingField.EditValue) as well as a visual brick used to render this field in Print Preview (EditingField.Brick). Changing an editing field’s value in Print Preview updates the EditValue property.
