TextBox

Description

This component represents a text input field in Blazor using the Gap.Blazor.TextBox model. It supports both single-line and multi-line input, password masking, scroll bar configuration, and selection tracking. It uses Telerik’s TextBox and TextArea components and integrates JavaScript interop for advanced selection handling.

Usage

@if (model.Visible)
{
    <WMStyleBase model=@textBox></WMStyleBase>

    <div @ref="inputWrapperRef" @onkeydown="@keyDownHandler" @onkeypress="@keyPressHandler" @onkeyup="@keyUpHandler">
        @if (textBox.Multiline)
        {
            <TelerikTextArea Enabled="@this.Enabled"
                             ReadOnly="@this.ReadOnly"
                             class="@($"{model.GetStringClasses()} {this.GetScrollBarClass()}")"
                             Value="@Text"
