Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

[DXCategory("Appearance")]
[Bindable(true)]
[Browsable(true)]
public override string Text { get; set; }

VB.NET

<DXCategory("Appearance")>
<Bindable(True)>
<Browsable(True)>
Public Overrides Property Text As String

Property Value

Type	Description
String	A String value which specifies the editor’s text.

Remarks

The Text property’s value is the text actually displayed by the editor.

Setting this property to a new value raises the BaseEdit.ParseEditValue event so that you can manually specify how the assigned value should be converted to the actual edit value. The BaseEdit.EditValueChanging event (which is raised before the actual edit value is changed) can be used to prevent the editor from changing its value. After the actual edit value has been changed the BaseEdit.EditValueChanged event is raised.
