I have made a Form
with an Edit
component using the DelphiFMX GUI Library for Python and I'm trying to add a placeholder text to the Edit component, but I'm not sure how. I've tried doing self.myEdit.Placeholder = "Enter your name..."
, but this just gives me an error of AttributeError: Error in setting property Placeholder
.
Here's my full code:
from delphifmx import *
class frmMain(Form):
def __init__(self, owner):
self.Caption = 'My Form'
self.Width = 400
self.Height = 200
self.myEdit = Edit(self)
self.myEdit.Parent = self
self.myEdit.Align = "Center"
self.myEdit.Width = 250
self.myEdit.Placeholder = "Enter your name..."
def main():
Application.Initialize()
Application.Title = "My Application"
Application.MainForm = frmMain(Application)
Application.MainForm.Show()
Application.Run()
Application.MainForm.Destroy()
main()
My Edit
is just empty. I need a placeholder text to be in there.
Is placeholder text available? How do I add placeholder text to the Edit?
In FMX, the Placeholder
text is called TextPrompt
. So you can simply do:
self.myEdit.TextPrompt = "Enter your name..."
And that should work as can be seen by the attached screenshot:
