    Hi Markus,
    This behavior is by design. If the ASPxTextBox.Password property is set to True (according to the PasswordPropertyTextAttribute), the text entered on the client side is not restored after a postback due to security reasons. The standard ASP.NET TextBox behaves in a similar manner.
    Thanks,
    Michael.
