Remarks

The incremental search feature allows an end-user to locate items by the start of the text. Open the editor’s dropdown and type text. The first item starting with this text will be located. You can press CTRL+DOWN ARROW to locate the next matching item. Press CTRL+UP to locate the preceding match.

If the IncrementalSearch property is set to false, the editor locates items by their starting letters.
