Property Value

Remarks

A common application of setting this property to True is password entry, where you would not want to display the actual characters of the password that the user enters in the text box. The default value is an empty string.

Only one character is accepted for the value of this property. If a string of more than one character is set, only the first character will be used as the placeholder character and the rest will be ignored.
