Good morning,
We are running the latest 4.1 build, it seems either this method is not working or the docs are misleading,
"Character that is used to fill required empty mask positions to display text while control has no focus."
We are needing to display a padded value at all times in a TextItem and it would appear this is the method we need, but the value is only ever padded when the TextItem has keyboard focus and this is being achieved by setMaskPromptChar().
In addition, is there a way of retrieving the padded value from a textitem as a String? All I can get hold of is the actual entered value, though perhaps this is tied into an issue with setMaskPadChar()?
If you could shed any light it would be great, thanks,
Liam
