.NET MAUI MaskedEntry Prompt Character

The MaskedEntry exposes a PromptChar(char) property, which represents a symbol (char) for any mask position that the user has not filled in yet. The default PromptChar value is _ (underscore).

• Setting the IPMaskedEntry

<telerik:RadIPMaskedEntry AutomationId="ipMask"/>

• Setting the TextMaskedEntry

<telerik:RadTextMaskedEntry Mask="LLLLL" AutomationId="textMaskTextOnly"/>
