Property Editors

Top  Previous  Next

The topic editor supports several different kinds of property editor. Which one is used depends on the Data Type of the property being edited and also on the cardinality (the number of properties of that type that are allowed on the topic). The supported types of editor are:

Simple Validating Text Editor - that provides a text box whose contents are validated against the Data Type of the property.
Date/Time Editor - that provides both a text box for entering dates and times and a simple date picker interface for entering dates.
Rich Text Editor - that provides a rich user interface for creating formatted text that is saved to the topic map as an HTML string.
Multi-Value Editor - not an editor itself, but a wrapper around any one of the three editors described above to allow you to add multiple values to a property.
