TCustomDrawGrid.GetEditMask function

Declaration

function GetEditMask(aCol: LongInt; aRow: LongInt): string; override

Arguments

Function result

Edit mask used for the specified cell.

Description

GetEditMask is an overridden method in TCustomDrawGrid. It re-implements the method from the ancestor class, and does not call the inherited method.

GetEditMask sets the return value to an empty string ('') by default. It signals the OnGetEditMask event handler (when assigned) to get the edit mask used in the editor for the grid cell.

GetEditMask is called from the EditorDoSetValue method in the ancestor class, and occurs when the editor control retrieves and validates the value for the specified cell.
