TcxCustomShellComboBoxProperties.FastSearch Property

Determines whether fast search for the shell items is enabled.

Declaration

property FastSearch: Boolean read; write; default False;

Property Value

Type Default
Boolean False

Remarks

When a shell combo box is used as an in-place editor, its EditValue accepts a string and the editor attempts to locate the corresponding shell item based on the FastSearch property value. If the FastSearch property is set to True, one of the following takes place:

  • If the specified EditValue refers to a virtual shell item, then full search for that item is performed.

  • If the EditValue refers to a non-virtual shell item, then the search is not performed and the EditValue stores the string portion after the last slash symbol. For instance: if the EditValue is assigned the “C:\Documents and Settings*UserName*\My Documents\My Pictures" value, then the stored value is “My Pictures” string.

The default value of the FastSearch property is False.
