Select all text when entering the control
posted

I am still trying to understand WPF coming from WInForms.  In Forms there was a property to select the text (or number) when the control got focus.   Is there a way to do this with the WPF Editors in VB.NET, or XAML?

    Hello,

     

    I can’t think of a property you can use right away. What you can do is handle the EditModeStarting or the EditModeStarted event and use the SelectAll method like so:

     

    private void xamTextEditor1_EditModeStarting(object sender, Infragistics.Windows.Editors.Events.EditModeStartingEventArgs e)

    {

        xamTextEditor1.SelectAll();

    }       

     

    Let me know if this helps and if you require any further assistance.

     

    Sincerely,
