Diacritic Sensitivity in WPF Autocomplete (SfTextBoxExt)

18 Nov 20181 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;
