| Attachmate.Reflection.SecuredSettingException | This exception is thrown when you try to modify a property that has been secured with the Permissions Manager or that can only be modified by an Administrator. |
The number of remaining bytes (characters) in the current field of a host application depends on whether the typed characters use combiner characters (for example, Thai). If you use a character set that doesn't use combiner characters, the remaining bytes equal the number of visible spaces.
Some combiner characters occupy no space, such as those that modify a base character. However, they count toward the maximum number of bytes allowed in an input field. Therefore, the host input field can be full without appearing full.
