AutoCompleteBox expose TextBox MaxLength

[workgroupengineering]

I need to set the maximum length of the AutoCompleteBox text, to do this I do it like this

    <AutoCompleteBox SelectedItem="{...}">
      <AutoCompleteBox.Styles>
        <Style Selector="AutoCompleteBox /template/ TextBox#PART_TextBox">
          <Setter Property="MaxLength" Value="25"/>
        </Style>
      </AutoCompleteBox.Styles>
    </AutoCompleteBox>

I have multiple AutoCompleteBoxes, each with different MaxLength. So I'm forced to repeat the style for each of them.

I believe you can also write a Behavior or attached property (my favorite)

I did not think about it. But wouldn't turning TextBox.MaxLength into an attached property be a breaking-change?

Not in Avalonia, on your side. my:AutoCompletHelper.MaxLength
