Hi
I would like to use a XamEditorMask as Editor for a timespan. I used the following code:
<igEditors:XamMaskedEditor ValueType="sys:TimeSpan"
Value="{Binding …}"
Mask="hh:mm:ss"
InvalidValueBehavior="RevertValue">
<igEditors:XamMaskedEditor.ValueConstraint>
<igEditors:ValueConstraint ValidateAsType="TimeSpan"
Nullable="False"/>
</igEditors:XamMaskedEditor.ValueConstraint>
</igEditors:XamMaskedEditor >
The problem is now, that I should be able to fill out more than 24h, but the editor doesn’t accept more than this 23:59:59.
What can I do? How is the Input validated exactly?
Best regards
'hh:mm:ss' is a time mask as would be part of a DateTime. The valid hours for time can only be 0-23. If you want to simulate a TimeSpan then you might use a mask like "nn:nn:nn" or "{number:0-99}:{number:0-59}:{number:0-59}" instead.
Hi AndrewThanks for your answer. Your proposal works partly.
The input format ist ok. I can fill out the editor with the desired input format. Further I had to write a ValueConverter, to deal with TimeSpans that are longer than 24h to format the TimeSpan in the correct way. (I set the value converter on ValueToTextConverter and ValueToDisplayConverter)
But now I have the problem, that when the TimeSpan ist bigger as 24h and I click in the editor to edit the value, the display format ist wrong. I could see in the debug mode, that the ValueConverter isn't involved in this action. Can I manipulate this value also?
