Property Value

Type	Description
DefaultBoolean	A DefaultBoolean enumerator value that specifies whether or not this RatingControl‘s text can be formatted using HTML tags.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

You can include HTML tags (bold, color, size etc) into a rating control’s caption (RatingControl.Text). If the AllowHtmlDraw property equals DefaultBoolean.True and text is currently visible (RepositoryItemRatingControl.ShowText), these tags will be used to format the caption. The figure below illustrates an example.
