WatermarkManager.SetText(String) Method

Adds a text watermark to all document pages.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native

Assembly: DevExpress.RichEdit.v24.2.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.RichEdit.Core

#Declaration

void SetText(
    string text
)

#Parameters

Name Type Description
text String

The watermark text.

#Exceptions

Type Description
InvalidOperationException

Occurs if the text parameter is null, an empty string, or contains only spaces.

#Remarks

Watermarks are located in section headers. If a document does not contain headers, a SetText method call adds headers of the Primary type to all document sections.

If the document has multiple sections, this method adds the same watermark to each section and each existing section header (first, primary, odd, or even).

The WatermarkManager.Type property indicates whether the document has watermarks. The property returns WatermarkType.None if the document does not contain watermarks.
