        FilterCondition condition = FilterCondition.Default
    )

    Optional Parameters

    Name Type Default Description
    kind FindPanelParserKind Default

    If a text entered into the editor text box contains whitespaces, the editor splits this string into separate logical blocks. This parameter specifies how these blocks are combined into a search query.

    condition FilterCondition Default

    The condition according to which the editor searches for the string entered into its text box.

    Remarks

    The example below illustrates how to limit the search by the “Ship Country” and “Ship City” fields, and change the search condition to “Starts with…”.

    search

    lookUpEdit1.AutoSearch += OnAutoSearch;
    
    void OnAutoSearch(object sender, LookUpEditAutoSearchEventArgs e) {
        string[] fields = new string[] { "ShipCity", "ShipCountry" };
        e.SetParameters(fields, e.Text, FindPanelParserKind.And, FilterCondition.StartsWith);
    }
