Property Value

Type	Default	Description
String	"d"	A string specifying a mask expression.

Remarks

Use the EditMask property to specify the pattern used to enter values.

By default, a date editor’s MaskProperties.MaskType property is set to MaskType.DateTime and the EditMask property is set to “d”. In this case, the date editor accepts values in the form specified by the ShortDatePattern pattern. Refer to the Mask Type: Date-time document for information on the available date/time patterns.

The EditMask property’s value is synchronized with the MaskProperties.EditMask which can be accessed via the RepositoryItemTextEdit.Mask property.
