Diacritic Sensitivity in WPF Autocomplete (SfTextBoxExt)

4 May 20211 minute to read

The control does not stick with one type of keyboard, so it can be populated with the items from a language with letters containing diacritics, and search for them with English characters from an en-US keyboard. Enable or disable the diacritic sensitivity using the IgnoreDiacritic property. The following code example demonstrates how to enable the diacritic sensitivity.

XAML

<editors:SfTextBoxExt HorizontalAlignment="Center" 
                      VerticalAlignment="Center" 
                      Height="40"
                      Width="200"
                      AutoCompleteMode="Suggest"
                      SuggestionMode="Contains"
                      IgnoreDiacritic="False"
                      HighlightedTextColor="Red"
                      TextHighlightMode="MultipleOccurrence"
                      SearchItemPath="Item"
                      AutoCompleteSource="{Binding DiacriticCollenction}"/>

C#

textBoxExt.IgnoreDiacritic = false;
