Property Value

Type	Description
String	A string that specifies predefined values for the current Property Editor, separated by semicolons.

Remarks

Use this property with string type properties. Users can select one of predefined values or enter a custom value.

To include a semicolon in a predefined value, type \\;.

To include a backslash in a predefined value, type \\.

You can specify the PredefinedValues value in the Model Editor.

Alternatively, you can use ModelDefaultAttribute to specify predefined values in code.

C# (EF Core)

[ModelDefault("PredefinedValues",
    "Predefined Value 1;Predefined Value 2;Predefined Value 3;Predefined Value 4")]
public virtual string StringWithPredefinedValuesProperty { get; set; }

C# (XPO)

[ModelDefault("PredefinedValues",
   "Predefined Value 1;Predefined Value 2;Predefined Value 3;Predefined Value 4")]
public string StringWithPredefinedValuesProperty {
    get => stringWithPredefinedValuesProperty;
    set => SetPropertyValue(nameof(StringWithPredefinedValuesProperty), ref stringWithPredefinedValuesProperty, value);
}

If you want to fill the predefined values list dynamically, use a custom property editor demonstrated in the following help topic: How to: Implement a Property Editor with Custom Controls that Support Predefined Values.
