TcxExtLookupComboBoxProperties.FocusPopup Property

Specifies whether a user can edit within the dropdown View of the ExtLookupEditor.

#Declaration

Delphi
property FocusPopup: Boolean read; write; default False;

#Property Value

Type Default
Boolean False

#Remarks

You can set the FocusPopup property to True to enable editing and filtering data within the dropdown View of the ExtLookupEditor. When you open the dropdown window, for instance, by clicking the dropdown button or by the F4, Alt+Up Arrow, or Alt+Down Arrow keystroke, the focus is moved to the View. This View is specified by the View property.

If the FocusPopup property is True, incremental filtering within the dropdown View is disabled (the IncrementalFiltering property is automatically set to False).

When the FocusPopup property is set to False, editing and filtering data are not allowed. In this case, focus remains in the edit box when you open the dropdown View. However, you are still able to navigate its records using the Up and Down arrow keys.

The default value of the FocusPopup property is False.
