Editors with masks allow end users to select any text parts they want

In versions prior to v20.1, our editors automatically updated their selection to highlight a clicked editable part.

XAML
<dxe:TextEdit EditValue="12" Mask="## km" MaskType="Numeric" MaskUseAsDisplayFormat="True" /> <dxe:TextEdit EditValue="1/1/2001" Mask="d" MaskType="DateTime" MaskUseAsDisplayFormat="True" />


We adjusted our selection mechanism to let end users select and copy custom ranges.


If a user selects two or more editable parts and enters a value, the leftmost selected part is updated.

To return to the previous behavior, set the attached MaskOptions.UpdateSelectionOnMouseUp property to true.

XAML
<dxe:TextEdit dxe:MaskOptions.UpdateSelectionOnMouseUp="True" .../>
