How to Use AutoFill Features in Windows Applications

AutoFill is a feature commonly associated with web browsers and applications that automatically populates fields with previously entered information. While the term "Preenchimento Automático" is not directly applicable as a built-in feature of the Windows operating system itself, several Windows applications and services offer similar functionalities. This article will explore how to utilize AutoFill features in web browsers on Windows and provide examples of how to manage these settings.

Examples:

  1. AutoFill in Web Browsers:

    Web browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge have built-in AutoFill features that can store and automatically fill in information such as addresses, payment details, and login credentials.

    • Google Chrome:

      1. Open Chrome and click on the three-dot menu in the upper-right corner.
      2. Go to "Settings" > "Autofill".
      3. Here, you can manage "Passwords", "Payment methods", and "Addresses and more".
      4. To add a new address, click on "Addresses and more" > "Add", and fill in the details.
    • Microsoft Edge:

      1. Open Edge and click on the three-dot menu in the upper-right corner.
      2. Go to "Settings" > "Profiles" > "Payment info" or "Addresses and more".
      3. Toggle the AutoFill settings on or off as needed.
      4. To add a new address, click on "Add address" and fill in the details.
  2. AutoFill in Microsoft Excel:

    Microsoft Excel provides an AutoFill feature to quickly fill cells with repetitive or sequential data.

    • Using AutoFill in Excel:
      1. Enter the starting value in a cell.
      2. Click on the small square at the bottom-right corner of the cell (the fill handle).
      3. Drag the fill handle over the cells you want to fill.
      4. Excel will automatically fill the cells based on the pattern of the initial cell(s).
  3. AutoFill in Windows Forms Applications:

    Developers can implement AutoFill-like features in custom Windows applications using programming languages like C# with Windows Forms.

    • Example in C#:

      using System;
      using System.Windows.Forms;
      
      public class AutoFillForm : Form
      {
       private TextBox textBox;
       private ListBox listBox;
       private string[] suggestions = { "Apple", "Banana", "Cherry", "Date", "Elderberry" };
      
       public AutoFillForm()
       {
           textBox = new TextBox { Location = new System.Drawing.Point(10, 10), Width = 200 };
           listBox = new ListBox { Location = new System.Drawing.Point(10, 40), Width = 200, Height = 100 };
           textBox.TextChanged += TextBox_TextChanged;
           Controls.Add(textBox);
           Controls.Add(listBox);
       }
      
       private void TextBox_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           listBox.Items.Clear();
           foreach (var suggestion in suggestions)
           {
               if (suggestion.StartsWith(textBox.Text, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
               {
                   listBox.Items.Add(suggestion);
               }
           }
       }
      
       [STAThread]
       static void Main()
       {
           Application.EnableVisualStyles();
           Application.Run(new AutoFillForm());
       }
      }
