New Control: Tokenizing / Tags
Describe the feature
New control to add tokens / tags (See screenshot). Could be helpful for different scenarios. Mainly for tagging.
The items should be bound to a collection.
@punker76 what do you think?
Additional context
Something like this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29525410/wpf-control-for-tokenizing
Optional:
- Configure the delimiter
- Accept enter key?
@BornToBeRoot maybe have a look at how MultiSelecitonComboBox works. It has almost everything needed to achieve such a control. However, this control has some really hard to solve issues (at least to be used everywhere and with many customizations). Mainly:
- When to convert the text to an token?
- How can a token be edited after it was changed?
- How to handle
LostFocus? - Do we need a way to validate tokens?
I will have a look at the control. Is it only available from version 3?
Yes, it's a new control for v3.0. There's a preview available if you want to try out.
