Grid V3.0 TextEditor MaxLength

[User (Old forums)]

#14381 |

I’ve noticed that TextEditor doesn’t have a MaxLength property, which it’s predecessor GridTextBox did. Is there an easy way to get this working in TextEditor without having to customise the control?

At the moment I’m still using GridTextBox but as it’s obsolete it would be good to change it.

Hi,

You need to use TextBox.TextBoxArea.MaxLenght instead.

I tried that and it doesn’t seem to work. I also tested it just using a WinTextBox on a form and settng the max length of that in the same way via the property window. That had the same result. Perhaps this is now a question for the Editors forum?

I can get around it using a normal TextBox with CellEditorManager so it’s no longer such a big problem.

This is indeed a bug that was fixed in the release of February 13, 2006 :

“Fixed setting TextBoxArea.MaxLength doing nothing”

If you are interested, you can obtain the fix here :
