Image Editor Caption Font Settings

You can use the image editor’s Style.Font and Style.TextColor properties to customize font settings applied to the text string assigned to the Caption property. In addition, you can use the same font settings accessible through the following properties to customize font appearance in corresponding editor states:

StyleDisabled
Defines style settings applied to the editor when it is disabled.
StyleFocused
Defines style settings applied to the editor when it has focus.
StyleHot
Defines style settings applied to the editor when it is hot-tracked.
StyleReadOnly
Defines style settings applied to the read-only editor state.

Tip

To apply the same style settings to multiple editors, use a TcxEditStyleController component. If you need to apply the same style settings to all editors in your application, you can use a TcxDefaultEditStyleController component.

Default Value

The Caption property’s default value is an empty string.
