Remarks

The CompositionLength property indicates how many characters have been entered since the last TextInput event. This property is only meaningful when the TextInputStart or TextInputUpdate event occurs. When the TextInput event occurs, CompositionLength is -1, and the ResultLength property indicates the length of the composition.

CompositionLength is introduced in the .NET Framework version 3.5. For more information, see Versions and Dependencies.
