IsAlwaysInEditMode Property

Gets/sets whether this editor is always in edit mode but is ignored when the editor is embedded inside another control. Default value is False.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property IsAlwaysInEditMode As Boolean

C#

public bool IsAlwaysInEditMode {get; set;}

Remarks

This property defaults to False. When set to False, the editor will exit edit mode when the control looses focus and re-enter edit mode when it receives focus. As a result it will also raise the EditModeStarting, EditModeStarted, EditModeEnding and EditModeEnded events.

If you set this property to True, the editor will always remain in edit mode. However note that this property is ignored when the editor is embedded inside another control (i.e. is hosted inside a ValuePresenter). When it's embedded, it will exit edit mode as directed by the hosting control.
