Topic: multiline cell does not allow text entry

I am attempting to get a multiline cell to work. I have set the following.

Column.Alignment = XTPColumnAlignment.xtpAlignmentWordBreak;

Column.EditOptions.EditControlStyle = XTPReportEditStyle.xtpEditStyleMultiline;

reportcontrol.PaintManager.FixedRowHeight = false;

My problem is that if a user fills the current length of the cell with text the report control prevents further input.

The user then needs to leave that cell and begin editing again so that another line is added and they can append more text.

I would have expected that the user could continue to type and the text would be wrapped to the next line as they were typing.

I have also noticed that if the cell is shorter than the text being pasted from the clipboard the report control does not allow the paste. I would have thought I could paste any length string into a cell and it would be word wrapped to accommodate?

Also is there a way that the report control can accept the enter key as input (to add a line break to their text).

I have also submitted a ticket about this Issue #27462

Hi,

This will scroll text automatically:

.Alignment = xtpAlignmentWordBreak
.EditOptions.EditControlStyle = xtpEditStyleMultiline + xtpEditStyleAutoVScroll
