Set IME Mode
The ImeMode property can be used to set an Input Method Editor (IME) mode of the C1Input controls. An Input Method Editor is a program that lets users enter complex symbols or characters, like Japanese Kanji characters, into the input controls, using a basic keyboard.
The following table describes the values available for ImeMode property.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| On | Indicates that the IME is on. Symbols or characters that are specific to Chinese or Japanese can be entered. Valid for Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese IME only. |
| Off | Indicates that the IME is off. The object behaves the same as English entry mode. Valid only for Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese IME. |
| Disable | Indicates that the IME is disabled. It means that a user cannot turn the IME on from the keyboard as the IME window is hidden. |
| Hiragana | Hiragana Double Byte Characters. Valid only for the Japanese IME. |
| Katakana | Katakana Double Byte Characters. Valid only for the Japanese IME. |
| KatakanaHalf | Katakana Single Byte Characters. Valid only for the Japanese IME. |
