Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v22.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

[DefaultValue(null)]
public virtual object EditValue { get; set; }

VB.NET

<Browsable(True)>
<DefaultValue(Nothing)>
Public Overridable Property EditValue As Object

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Object	null	An Object that specifies the editor’s value.

Remarks

To respond to changing the EditValue property, handle the BarEditItem.EditValueChanged event.

For certain in-place editors, the static WindowsFormsSettings.InplaceEditorUpdateMode property controls the time when the BarEditItem.EditValueChanged event fires - immediately or after the in-place editor loses focus. See WindowsFormsSettings.InplaceEditorUpdateMode to learn more.

Example

The following code shows how to:

• embed a SpinEdit editor in a bar using the BarEditItem object.
• assign an initial value to the editor (BarEditItem);
• handle the BarEditItem.EditValueChanged event to perform actions when the editor’s value changes.

C#

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    // Create a BarEditItem with embedded SpinEdit in-place editor.
    BarEditItem item = new BarEditItem(barManager1);
    item.Edit = barManager1.RepositoryItems.Add("SpinEdit");
    bar1.AddItem(item);
    item.EditValueChanged += BarEditItem1_EditValueChanged;

    // Specify the editor's initial value.
    int initialValue = 0;
    item.EditValue = initialValue;
}

// Perform actions when the editor's value changes
private void BarEditItem1_EditValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    BarEditItem item = sender as BarEditItem;
    object newValue = item.EditValue;
    //...
}

VB.NET

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    ' Create a BarEditItem with embedded SpinEdit in-place editor.
    Dim item As BarEditItem = New BarEditItem(BarManager1)
    item.Edit = BarManager1.RepositoryItems.Add("SpinEdit")
    Bar1.AddItem(item)
    AddHandler item.EditValueChanged, AddressOf BarEditItem1_EditValueChanged

    ' Specify the editor's initial value.
    Dim initialValue As Integer = 0
    item.EditValue = initialValue
End Sub

' Perform actions when the editor's value changes
Private Sub BarEditItem1_EditValueChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
    Dim item As BarEditItem = CType(sender, BarEditItem)
    Dim newValue As Object = item.EditValue
    '...
End Sub
