1. Add a RadMaskedEditBox and a RadCheckbox to your form. 2. Add ToggleStateChanged event to the RadCheckbox. 3. Use the following code: private void radCheckBox1_ToggleStateChanged(object sender, StateChangedEventArgs args) { if (args.ToggleState == Telerik.WinControls.Enumerations.ToggleState.On) { radMaskedEditBox1.Mask = "^[0-9]{5}$"; radMaskedEditBox1.MaskType = MaskType.Regex; } else if (args.ToggleState == Telerik.WinControls.Enumerations.ToggleState.Off) { radMaskedEditBox1.Mask = ""; radMaskedEditBox1.MaskType = MaskType.None; } } 4. Start the application 5. Check and uncheck the checkbox (now ToggleStateChanged event was fired) 6. Type some letters to the RadMaskedEditBox (e.g. "aaa") 7. Press tab Workaround: RegexMaskTextBoxProvider provider; private void radCheckBox1_ToggleStateChanged(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.StateChangedEventArgs args) { if (args.ToggleState == Telerik.WinControls.Enumerations.ToggleState.On) { radMaskedEditBox1 = new RadMaskedEditBox(); radMaskedEditBox1.Mask = "^[0-9]{5}$"; radMaskedEditBox1.MaskType = MaskType.Regex; radMaskedEditBox1.MaskedEditBoxElement.TextBoxItem.HostedControl.Leave += HostedControl_Leave; provider = (RegexMaskTextBoxProvider) radMaskedEditBox1.MaskedEditBoxElement.Provider; } else if (args.ToggleState == Telerik.WinControls.Enumerations.ToggleState.Off) { radMaskedEditBox1.MaskedEditBoxElement.Mask = ""; radMaskedEditBox1.MaskType = MaskType.None; } } private void HostedControl_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (radMaskedEditBox1.MaskType == MaskType.None && provider != null) { provider.GetType().GetField("mask", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance).SetValue(provider, "*"); } }
