Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets or sets the rate at which the error icon flashes.
public:
property int BlinkRate { int get(); void set(int value); };public int BlinkRate { get; set; }member this.BlinkRate : int with get, setPublic Property BlinkRate As IntegerProperty Value
The rate, in milliseconds, at which the error icon should flash. The default is 250 milliseconds.
Exceptions
The value is less than zero.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates using the ErrorProvider class to notify the user of a data entry error. The example creates a Form that contains a TextBox control, a NumericUpDown control, and a ComboBox control, each validating its content, and an ErrorProvider for each control. The example sets error icon options using the BlinkRate and BlinkStyle properties and the SetIconAlignment and SetIconPadding methods. The SetError method is called with or without appropriate error text during a control's Validated event, depending upon the content in the control.
