Is this functionality available in an editor control of some kind from the Syncfusion collection ?
In the SfDataForm it shows editors with features I want.

I may have missed it but is the "edit" control available outside the SfDataForm that allows "appearance customization" like shown below ?

Hi Stephen,
Thank you for using Syncfusion products.
We checked your requirement “Appearance customization in SfDataForm" and You can achieve your requirement by setting the “FocusedColor”, “UnfocusedColor”, “ErrorMessageColor” and “ValidMessageColor” in SfDataForm. We’ve prepared the sample for the same. Please find the link below for the sample,
Code Snippet:
|
private void DataForm_AutoGeneratingDataFormItem(object sender, AutoGeneratingDataFormItemEventArgs e)
{
if (e.DataFormItem != null && e.DataFormItem.Name == "FirstName")
{
e.DataFormItem.FocusedColor = Color.Blue;
e.DataFormItem.UnfocusedColor = Color.Silver;
e.DataFormItem.ErrorMessageColor = Color.DarkRed;
e.DataFormItem.ValidMessageColor = Color.Green;
}
} |
Please find the output for the same,

I know you can do it with the SfDataForm
I want to know if there is a control in the library that offers this functionality without using the SfDataForm in a stand alone control like an EntryCell ?
