validate on control lost focus

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the question.
Please see a similar issue for more information on how your task can be accomplished: ID Q90810 (Where or How to Validate Custom Logon Parameters).
I have also included my sample project in the attachment. Please let me know in case of any difficulty.
Thanks
Dennis

Hi Dennis,
Thank you for the information.
Two questions:

1. When I run the program through Visual Studio the validation exception breaks program execution, is there a way to prevent this?
2. I would like to validate only the ruleSet that is found on the property bound to the PropertyEditor on which the LostFocus event was triggered. How would I do this?
   (The reason for #2 is as follows, say I have a simple program that calculates the area of a rectangle. The user is asked to enter a width and a height, when the user enters the width and tabs to the height the validation procedure is tripped and the height property shows an "error" however, I believe this is not accurate as the user has not had an opportunity to enter a height so I want to see the requiredRule trigger for height if the user tabs out and leaves it empty (or 0 or whatever).)
   Thanks,
   Mark

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the report. We are working on this issue and will post our answer as soon as possible.
Thanks

Hi Mark,

1. Currently, you can clear the "Break when an exception is thrown" option in the "Exceptions" dialog, or set the "Enable just My Code" option in the "Options" dialog, "Debugging" section. I've also added a suggestion in this regard: ID S19477 (Validation should not throw ValidationExceptions).
2. Unfortunately, there is no way to do this in the current version of the suite as you want. We will inform you once we find a better workaround. For now, I have registered the corresponding suggestion with ID S19476 (Validation - Validate related rules when a control loses focus).
   Please track them to be automatically notified when their statuses are changed.
   Thank you for your patience,
   Dennis

Hi Dennis,
Thank you.
Would you be able to provide me some guidance as to how I can manually access the error controller (one that shows the x beside a control) such that I can show an error to the user without using the validation module?
Thanks,
Mark
