Introduction
I got the idea for this control after looking at some website, where the text
boxes in forms contained tagged text like <enter your name here>, that
went away once the text box got input focus. I thought that was a great idea, and here's my MFC version
of the same thing. You can set different colors to the prompt text my setting the
SetPromptShowMode(PromptShowModeEnum)
member. You can also control whether the prompt text
will go away one the user has left the edit control without entering any value or not by setting
the SetRegainPrompt(bool)
. You can always check whether the prompt text is active by
calling GetPromptTextActive(void)
. And of course there's SetPromptText(LPCTSTR)
and
another overloaded version that you can use to set the prompt text.
