MaskedTextBox for Windows Phone Features

ComponentOne MaskedTextBox for Windows Phone allows you to create customized, rich applications. Make the most of MaskedTextBox for Windows Phone by taking advantage of the following key features:

      Mask Formatting

You can provide input validation and format how the text is displayed by setting the Mask property. C1MaskedTextBox supports the standard number formatting strings defined by Microsoft and uses the same syntax as the standard MaskedTextBox control in WinForms. This makes it easier to re-use masks across applications and platforms.

      Include Prompts and Literals  

Choose whether or not to show prompt characters and literals by simply setting one property. The prompt character indicates to the user that text can be entered (such as _ or *). Literals are non-mask characters that will appear as themselves within the mask (such as / or -).

      Watermark Support  

Using the Watermark property you can provide contextual clues of what value users should enter in the C1MaskedTextBox control. The watermark is displayed in the control while no text has been entered.

      Metro UI Design   

C1MaskedTextBox supports the Metro UI design and interaction guidelines specified by Microsoft.
