Changing Font Type and Size

You can change the appearance of the text in the grid by using the text properties in Microsoft Expression Blend's Properties tab, through XAML, or through code.

At Design Time in Blend

To change the font of the grid to Arial 10pt in Blend, complete the following:

1.   Click the C1MaskedTextBox control once to select it.

2.   Navigate to the Properties tab, and set FontFamily property to "Arial" (or a font of your choice).

3.   In the Properties window, set the FontSize property to 10.

This will set the control's font size and style.

In XAML

For example, to change the font of the control to Arial 10pt in XAML add FontFamily="Arial" FontSize="10" to the <c1:C1MaskedTextBox> tag so that it appears similar to the following:

<c1:C1MaskedTextBox Height="23" Name="C1MaskedTextBox1" Width="120" FontSize="10" FontFamily="Arial"></c1:C1MaskedTextBox>

In Code

For example, to change the font of the grid to Arial 10pt add the following code to your project:

      Visual Basic

      C#

Run your project and observe:

The control's content will appear in Arial 10pt font.
