    lsEditFixedList,
    lsEditList,
    lsFixedList
);

#Members

#Remarks

TcxEditDropDownListStyle options apply to lookup and combo box editors – those that display the available values in a dropdown list.

Options include:

Value Meaning
lsEditFixedList Text input is allowed and the entered text is automatically completed if it matches one of the values within the editor’s dropdown. Entering new values is prohibited.
lsEditList Text input is allowed and the entered text is automatically completed if it matches one of the values within the editor’s dropdown. New values can be entered.
lsFixedList Text input is not allowed. The editor can only navigate through the values stored within its dropdown.

The TcxEditDropDownListStyle type is referenced by the editor’s Properties.DropDownListStyle property. Note that entering text to the editor always activates its dropdown, regardless of the property setting.
