RadMaskedInput Value

[codeputer]

Hi,

 

not have any properties of Value or Text?

And why the Displayed only Get?

"DisplayedText: Gets the displayed text.(Read-only)"

 

How can I load data and bind to RadMaskedInput to show data?

Thanks.

Hi Richard,

The property you're looking for is InputValue. Here's a simple example to demonstrate:

<ContentPage>
    <StackLayout>
        <Label x:Name="OutputLabel" VerticalOptions="Center"/>

        <telerikInput:RadMaskedInput x:Name="maskedInput"
                             WatermarkText="Enter Email Address"
                             Mask=".+@[a-zA-Z]+\.[a-zA-Z]+"
                             MaskType="Regex"/>

        <Button Text="Get Value" Clicked="Button_OnClicked"/>
    </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>

public partial class StartPage : ContentPage
{
    public StartPage()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Button_OnClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        OutputLabel.Text = maskedInput.InputValue;
    }
}

Does InputValue support Binding ?  Nothing in the examples folder shows it...

[Lance | Senior Manager Technical Support]

Hello Jeff,

Yes, it supports data binding. for example:

<input:RadMaskedInput InputValue="{Binding MyInputValue, Mode=TwoWay}" />

Although, this isn't an ideal case for a masked control as the backing value bound to InputValue will be updated regardless of validation.

If you have any trouble implementing the data binding with MaskedInput, please open a support ticket here and share the view mode property and the XAML so that the development team can assist directly.

Is there a way to have the border get read in case of failed validation instead of the message on the bottom?

Hi Alberto,

This is not yet possible through a built-in but can be easily achieved by hooking into the ApplyMaskFinished and making changes to the UI based on the value of IsInputAccepted

As a mock example, change the BorderStyle:

<input:RadMaskedInput ApplyMaskFinished="RadMaskedInput_OnApplyMaskFinished" InvalidInputErrorText=""/>

private BorderStyle goodBorderStyle = new BorderStyle { BorderColor = Color.Gray, BorderThickness = new Thickness(0,0,0,4)};
private BorderStyle badBorderStyle = new BorderStyle { BorderColor = Color.Red, BorderThickness = new Thickness(0, 0, 0, 4) };

private void RadMaskedInput_OnApplyMaskFinished(object sender, ApplyMaskFinishedEventArgs e)
{
    var maskedInput = sender as RadMaskedInput;

    maskedInput.BorderStyle = maskedInput.IsInputAccepted ? goodBorderStyle : badBorderStyle;
}

Ultimately, you can take whichever approach works for you the best, the main takeaway is that you can change the style depending on IsInputAccepted, and set the InvalidInputErrorText to an empty string.
