EditPropertyValueCommand

This command is used to open a dialog for editing a property.

It is located on the ContentViewModel, and as such can be used from the UI of an object to edit its MetaProperties.

Note that a Save and Commit on the ContentViewModel is automatically triggered once the edit is confirmed.

If your usecase requires that the property change is not automatically saved, instead use the (PropertyViewModel).ShowEditorCommand / .PropertyClickedCommand to trigger the edit dialogue of a specific MetaProperty.

Command Properties

• ID: String. The ID of the property to be edited.

Example:

<Button Command="{Binding EditPropertyValueCommand}" Text="Edit">
        <Button.CommandParameter>
                <uc:KeyValueList>
                        <uc:KeyValueParameter Key="ID" Value="TEXT_READWRITE" />
                </uc:KeyValueList>
        </Button.CommandParameter>
</Button>

Scan to Input

• ScanToInput: bool. Default value is false.

A custom button can be added to the UI to trigger the scanning control by default when the string edit window is opened, simply by adding the following KeyValueParameter:

<Button Command="{Binding EditPropertyValueCommand}" Text="ScanToEdit">
        <Button.CommandParameter>
                <uc:KeyValueList>
                        <uc:KeyValueParameter Key="ID" Value="TEXT_READWRITE" />
                        <uc:KeyValueParameter Key="ScanToInput" Value="true" />
                </uc:KeyValueList>
        </Button.CommandParameter>
</Button>

A toggle button to do from within the string edit dialogue was added to the standard UI.
