DevExpress Blazor editors display built-in command buttons that allow users to open a drop-down, increase/decrease the value, or clear the edit box content.

You can use Show***Button properties to hide these buttons.

You can also customize default command button or add custom buttons to editors. Follow the steps below.

Add the <Buttons></Buttons> tag to the editor’s markup to define the Buttons collection.
Fill the Buttons collection. This collection renders specified buttons in the order they appear in the markup.
Set up button properties to customize the buttons:

Buttons are displayed in an editor in the following order:

The “Clear” button
Custom buttons and customized default buttons (in the same order as they appear in markup)
Built-in buttons

Run Demo: Editors - Command Buttons
