Public Overridable ReadOnly Property CanFormatPropertyValue As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean

true , if the value can be formatted; otherwise - false. The default is false.

Remarks

The CanFormatPropertyValue always returns false. This behavior should be overridden in descendants that use the PropertyEditor.DisplayFormat and/or PropertyEditor.EditMask properties to format a property value.

A custom PropertyEditor class will use the default formatting from the Application Model only if it overrides the CanFormatPropertyValue property in order to return true there.
