Silverlight Editor Control

Watch the Silverlight xamComboEditor control video and learn how to setup data binding, work with key properties, and how to setup a customized item display using data templates. (Duration: 8:44)

The xamNumericEditor™ simplifies the entry and editing of numeric data to any number of decimal places, and confined to any range with programmable upper and lower bounds that reduce erroneous user input. With its spin buttons, end-users may serially increment or decrement the editor's value by an arbitrary amount.

When your Silverlight application calls for formatted or text data with more stringent constraints, the introduction of the xamMaskedEditor™ couldn't be more timely. Its input mask support helps end-users fill-in the editor's value, intuitively matching the format your application requires.

If you have many choices to display to users of your Silverlight application, then there is no more performant solution than xamComboEditor™. It's a virtualized, flat data bound dropdown container for single- and multiple-selection that excels past the in-box Silverlight combo when displaying large numbers of items.
