Caret is visible even after setting the ReadOnly to true in XamMaskedEditor
posted

Hi,

I am setting XamMaskedEditor's  IsReadOnly property to true. Now if I use mouse to focus on the XamMaskedEditor the caret blinks inside the XamMaskedEditor. Is it the default behavior or a defect.
If I use the XamTextEditor the caret is not visible inside the XamTextEditor.

Please find a sample attached here.

Steps to reproduce -

1. Run the application.
2. Click on the XamMaskedEditor using mouse.
3. The caret blinks inside the XamMaskedEditor.

Regards,

Sachin

    Hello Sachim,

     

    I have been looking into your issue and I can see what you mean. I guess that this is so, since there isn’t much point in using a mask editor for a  readonly field. Nevertheless I found a way for you to hide the caret when the masked editor is readonly. I have made this code snippet based on the sample project you had uploaded:

     

    <igEditors:XamMaskedEditor Width="100" Margin="5" IsReadOnly="True" EditModeStarting="mask_EditModeStarting"  VerticalAlignment="Top" Name="mask"  HorizontalAlignment="Left" PromptChar="" >

        <igEditors:XamMaskedEditor.Resources>

            <Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:CaretElement}">

                <Style.Triggers>

                    <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding  RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type igEditors:XamMaskedEditor}}, Path=IsReadOnly}" Value="true">

                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent" />

                    </DataTrigger>

                </Style.Triggers>

            </Style>

        </igEditors:XamMaskedEditor.Resources>

    </igEditors:XamMaskedEditor>

     

    Please let me know if I can assist you further on the matter.
