#Remarks

The ShortDescription property enables you to specify the string that represents an item in the edit box of a check combo box editor. To specify the description of the item in the dropdown window of a check combo box, use the Description property.

Note that when the ShortDescription property is not set the Description property value is used instead to represent an item in the edit box.

The following code changes the description of the first item displayed in the edit box.

Delphi
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  cxCheckComboBox1.Properties.Items[0].ShortDescription := '<Changed >';
end;
