# Control Object Properties

SignalOnExit | Signal Event on Exit

## Description

Signal event on exit

This property controls whether a 'Change' signal will be generated when the control (or region of a grid control) is exited regardless of whether the control's value changes. Normally, controls only signal changes when the control loses focus and the contents have changed. Setting "SignalOnExit" allows a change signal to also be generated whenever focus leaves the control (or region for grid).

Possible values are:

| 0 | No signal on exit unless control value has changed.
| 1 | Signal on exit regardless of whether value has changed (on grid, signals whenever changing cell).
| 2 | Signal when changing row or on exit of grid (sets column value to 0 and row value to last row exited). (Grid Only)
| 3 | Signal when exiting the grid (sets column and row values to zero). (Grid Only)
