RichEditControl.Modified Property

Gets or sets a value that indicates that the RichEdit control contents was modified since it was last saved.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.v18.2.dll

Declaration

C#

[Browsable(false)]
[DefaultValue(false)]
public bool Modified { get; set; }

VB.NET

<Browsable(False)>
<DefaultValue(False)>
Public Property Modified As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	**false**	true if the control’s contents was modified since it was last saved; otherwise, false.

Remarks

You can use the Modified property to distinguish between document loading and modifying within the RichEditControl.ContentChanged event handler.

The RichEditControl.SaveDocument, RichEditControl.SaveDocumentAs or Document.SaveDocument method call does not automatically change the Modified property value. However, the SaveDocumentCommand or SaveDocumentAsCommand execution changes the Modified property value to false.

When the Modified property value is changed, the RichEditControl.ModifiedChanged event raises.
