Defines whether field captions are visible when the control is in edit mode.

Remarks

Property specifies if the captions of the fields are visible when user is editing data. Caption displayed are the same as in normal mode.

If property is set to True, captions are displayed in edit mode, along with the edit section of each field. This way user can undoubtedly know which field he is editing at the moment.

If property is set to False, only the edit sections of the fields are displayed in edit mode. Although captions are missing, groups still exist. Fields can be arranged in groups. This is done by defining Category property of an individual field.

The option not to display captions is especially useful when there is a lack of space and when fields are already organized in a manner so that it is impossible to mix them.

The default value for this property is True.

Example (MxSpace)

To see the defined CaptionsVisible property on a control (GridEdit) open MxSpace solution project in Visual Studio. In Solution Explorer expand node Parts and double click WorkOrderManagePart.cs. Click the GridEdit control for displaying work orders and open Property Window. See the value True defined in CaptionsVisible property.

1. In Solution Explorer open MxPart component (WorkOrderManagePart) which contains the control (GridEdit).
2. Select the desired control (GridEdit) on the canvas
3. Open Property Window.
4. In section EditorProperties in CaptionsVisible property select the desired value (True).
