This property editor has been designed to get round two limitations of the standard Delphi string property editor.
- The standard property editor does not allow multi-line strings with embedded CR/LF characters to be entered via the object inspector. Such strings can only be assigned run-time.
- Although 32 bit Delphi strings have a 2Gb size limit, the standard property editor only accepts strings up to 255 characters long. Once again, longer strings must be assigned at run-time.
The enhanced property editor works with every string or TCaption property. It adds an ellipsis button to the right hand side of the data entry area in the object inspector. Clicking this button displays a dialog box in which the property's value can be entered. Pressing return in the dialog box starts a new line. There is no practical limit to the length of strings that can be entered.
The edit dialog is resizable. Word wrapping can be switched on or off. Both the word-wrapping and dialog box size and position are persistent.
Load and Save buttons are provided in the dialog box to enable the property's value to be loaded from, or saved to a file
