Class MaskFormat

Specifies how SfMaskedEdit returns its formatted value when reading the control's Value. This setting controls whether prompt placeholder characters and formatting literals (such as separators) are included in the returned string. Choose a format to match your storage, binding, or clipboard expectations: exclude both prompts and literals for raw input, preserve literals for formatted data, include prompts for debugging or fixed-length output, or include both for a fully formatted representation. This setting affects value binding and copy/paste behavior.
