Declaration

TcxBlobEdit = class(
    TcxCustomBlobEdit
)

Remarks

The TcxBlobEdit object represents the BLOB (Binary Large Object) editor. It can store and edit two data types: memo and image data. When an editor is in memo mode, the editor dropdown window displays memo text. When an editor is in picture mode, the editor dropdown window displays the stored image. A BLOB editor allows a user to cut, copy and paste the data stored within an editor. All these actions are accessed through the popup menu which appears when a user right-clicks within the editor dropdown window.

The appearance and the functionality of the BLOB editor can be accessed via the Use the style (the Style, StyleDisabled, StyleFocused and StyleHot) and Properties members.
