<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>The <b>UseSystemPasswordChar</b> property has precedence over the
<span class="xref">GrapeCity.Win.Spread.InputMan.CellType.GcTextBox.PasswordChar</span> property. Whenever the <b>UseSystemPasswordChar</b>
is set to <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/builtin-types/bool">true</a>, the default system password character is used and any character set by
<b>PasswordChar</b>is ignored.</p>
