Assembly: DevExpress.Maui.Editors.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Maui.Editors
#Declaration
public string PlaceholderText { get; set; }
#Property Value
Type | Description |
---|---|
String | The placeholder’s text. |
#Remarks
ComboBoxEdit shows the PlaceholderText
if only the combo box’ IsFilterEnabled property is activated. The combo box hides the placeholder text after a user starts to enter a filter query.
For combo boxes with disabled filter functionality, you can specify the EditBase.LabelText property to show the accompanying text.
The following example adds a filter prompt to a Combo Box:
<dxe:ComboBoxEdit IsFilterEnabled="True"
BoxMode="{Binding SelectedBoxMode}"
ItemsSource="{Binding BoxModes}"
LabelText="Box Mode"
PlaceholderText="Type box mode name"
PlaceholderColor="Gray"
TextFontSize="20"
TextHorizontalAlignment="Start"
TextFontAttributes="Bold"/>
