EditorButton.IsDefaultButton Property

Gets or sets whether the button is the default button.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors.Controls

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

#Declaration

[Browsable(false)]
public virtual bool IsDefaultButton { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true if the button is the default button; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

Default editor buttons are the buttons that are displayed by default. For instance, when a ButtonEdit is dropped onto a form, it displays a (…) button which is the default button. The button’s IsDefaultButton property specifies whether the button is the default button. This can be useful when creating custom editors with additional default buttons.

#Example

The example below demonstrates how to create a custom button editor with default spin buttons.

class RepositoryItemMyButtonEdit : RepositoryItemButtonEdit {
    // ...
    public static void RegisterMyButtonEdit() {
        // ...
        EditorRegistrationInfo.Default.Editors.Add(new EditorClassInfo("MyButtonEdit", 
        typeof(MyButtonEdit), typeof(RepositoryItemMyButtonEdit), 
        typeof(DevExpress.XtraEditors.ViewInfo.ButtonEditViewInfo), 
        new DevExpress.XtraEditors.Drawing.ButtonEditPainter(), 
        true, null, typeof(DevExpress.Accessibility.ButtonEditAccessible)));
    }
    private void AddDefaultButton(EditorButton btn, Keys keys) {
        btn.IsLeft = true;
        btn.Shortcut = new DevExpress.Utils.KeyShortcut(keys);
        btn.IsDefaultButton = true;
        Buttons.Add(btn);
    }
    public override void CreateDefaultButton() {
        base.CreateDefaultButton();
        AddDefaultButton(new EditorButton(ButtonPredefines.SpinRight), Keys.Add);
        AddDefaultButton(new EditorButton(ButtonPredefines.SpinLeft), Keys.Subtract);
    }
}

public class MyButtonEdit : DevExpress.XtraEditors.ButtonEdit {
    static MyButtonEdit() {
        RepositoryItemMyButtonEdit.RegisterMyButtonEdit();
    }
    public override string EditorTypeName { get { return "MyButtonEdit"; } }
    // ...
}
