Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors.Repository
Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.2.dll
Declaration
[DefaultValue(true)]
[DXCategory("Behavior")]
public override bool ImmediatePopup { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Boolean | true | true if the popup window is displayed immediately after an end-user has typed a character in the edit box; otherwise, false. |
Remarks
If the ImmediatePopup property is true (the default behavior) the popup window is displayed immediately after an end-user has typed something in the edit box. The MRUEdit control supports the automatic filtering feature. So when the text within the edit box is modified the editor filters the items in the dropdown and displays those that match the current displayed value.
If the ImmediatePopup property is set to false, the end-user can open the popup window as follows:
- by clicking the button whose index is set in the RepositoryItemPopupBase.ActionButtonIndex property.
- by pressing the Alt+DownArrow key or the RepositoryItemPopupBase.CloseUpKey key in the edit box.
- by clicking the control’s edit box according to the RepositoryItemPopupBase.ShowDropDown property value
To open the dropdown via code, you can use the PopupBaseEdit.ShowPopup method.
