Corners

You can adjust edit box corners - all corners of an Outlined text editor, and top corners of a Filled editor (bottom corners are always square). Use the CornerRadius property to change the radius of editor corners:

Pass a single double value to the CornerRadius structure to set the same radius for all editor corners:
Pass four double values (TopLeft, TopRight, BottomLeft and BottomRight, in this order) to specify each corner radius separately:

The CornerMode property specifies whether the editor corners are cut or rounded. In cut corner mode, the parameters above affect corner bevel size.
