Text Property

Gets or sets the MaskedEdit text.

Syntax
C#
Copy
 public String Text { get; set; }
Remarks

Use this property to gets or sets the current text for the MaskedEdit control. The text of the MaskedEdit control is the Text of all child MaskedEditSegment controls concatenated together, including those for StaticMaskedEditSegments. For example, a MaskedEdit control used to enter date value may define the following segments:

XAML
Copy
<eo:MaskedEdit PromptChar="_">
    <eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment Digits="2" TabPattern="/" MinValue="1" MaxValue="12" AutoPadZeros="True"></eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment>
    <eo:StaticMaskedEditSegment Value="/"></eo:StaticMaskedEditSegment>
    <eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment Digits="2" TabPattern="/" MinValue="1" MaxValue="31" AutoPadZeros="True"></eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment>
    <eo:StaticMaskedEditSegment Value="/"></eo:StaticMaskedEditSegment>
    <eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment Digits="4" MinValue="1900" MaxValue="2100" AutoPadZeros="True"></eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment>
</eo:MaskedEdit>

For the above MaskedEdit, its Text may return something like "01/12/2013". Note the value of StaticMaskedEditSegment (the two "/"s) are returned as well.

When setting this property, the MaskedEdit control use a number of methods try to determine the best way to split a single string into different segments, and assign each segment to the corresponding MaskedEditSegment's Text property. For the date MaskedEdit sample above, this can be successfully achieved by matching the text of the two StaticMaskedEditSegment first. However this may not be possible for some other cases. Consider the following MaskedEdit control which contains two NumericMaskedEditSegment:

XAML
Copy
<eo:MaskedEdit PromptChar="_">
    <eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment Digits="5"></eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment>
    <eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment Digits="5"></eo:NumericMaskedEditSegment>
</eo:MaskedEdit>

It is possible for user to enter "12" in the first segment and "345" in the second segment, thus Text property returns "12345". However if you set Text to "12345", all 5 digits will be filled into the first NumericMaskedEditSegment, with the second NumericMaskedEditSegment being set to empty. To avoid such problems, you can use GetTextWithSeparator to explicitly insert separators between the Text of each MaskedEditSegment.
