Methods

Clear

#
public virtual bool Clear(ref int position, int length, bool forward)
Called to clear a range of characters at the specified position in the masked text.
Remarks: The cleared characters usually show the prompt character after cleared. This is useful for fixed length mask providers. For variable length, this is usually the same as calling Delete(int, int, bool).
Parameters:
position (ref int)Position to clear at.
length (int)Length of text (in the mask) to clear
forward (bool)true to delete the text forward, or false to delete backward
Returns: true when the deletion was successful, or false if it failed.
Implements: Clear

CommitText

#Since v2.12
public virtual void CommitText()
Called to update the display text after changes to the mask value.
Remarks: This is called after user changes to the mask value is complete, such as when the control loses focus, or when the user presses enter. This allows the mask provider to update the display text after changes are made to the value, while still allowing the user to type in the text without it changing until they are done.
Implements: CommitText

Delete

#
public virtual bool Delete(ref int position, int length, bool forward)
Called to delete a range of characters at the specified position in the masked text.
Parameters:
position (ref int)Position to delete at.
length (int)Length of text (in the mask) to delete
forward (bool)true to delete the text forward, or false to delete backward
Returns: true when the deletion was successful, or false if it failed.
Implements: Delete

Insert

#
public virtual bool Insert(char character, ref int position)
Called to insert a character at the specified position in the masked text.
Parameters:
character (char)Character to insert.
position (ref int)Position to insert at.
Returns: true when the insertion was successful, or false if it failed.
Implements: Insert

Replace

#
public virtual bool Replace(char character, ref int position)
Called to replace a character at the specified position in the masked text.
Parameters:
