DialogFieldDefinition
Creates a
TextBox control and associated
Button. Clicking the button executes the delegate in the
DialogAction property.
Note: Although this is called a
DialogFieldDefinition, the button response doesn't have to display a dialog box - it can do anything you need. The demo app places the current timestamp into the text field, for example.
Properties
public Func<object, object> DialogAction { get; set; } Sets or returns the delegate function that is called when the user clicks the action button. This delegate is passed the current value of the
TextBox control, and should return a new value.
Example:
definition.DialogAction = (object existingValue) => {
String newValue = existing;
// Obtain new value, from a modal window for example
return newValue;
};
public bool TextBoxReadOnly { get; set; } Sets or returns a value indicating whether the TextBox control is read-only (the default) or not. This is useful for situations where you want the user to be able to modify the value manually.
public String ButtonCaption { get; set; } Sets or returns the caption string to use for the action button. The default value is three periods forming an ellipsis ("...").
public Button ActionButton { get; } Returns a reference to the Button control.
Controls created:
- ContentControl (ContainerControl)
- Grid
- TextBox (InputControl)
- Button
