# SAIFMenu.ContextViewStyleEnum

`SAIFMenu.ContextViewStyleEnum` is a nested enum consumed by `SAIFMenu.ContextViewStyle` to control how the optional context-value text box (e.g., a claim-number entry field) is rendered on the left navigation panel.

## Purpose
- Selects between showing the context text box as normally editable, read-only, or hidden entirely, letting host pages adapt the navigation panel to whether a context value should be editable on a given screen.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2.Menu` (nested within `SAIFMenu`)
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2.Menu` (packaged within `SAIF.BOF.Presentation.Web.Infragistics103`)

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `Normal` | `Normal` | Renders the context-value text box as a normal, editable input field. |
| `Read_Only` | `Read_Only` | Renders the context-value text box as read-only, displaying its value without allowing edits. |
| `Hidden` | `Hidden` | Omits the context-value text box from rendering entirely. |

## Behavioral notes
- Applied by `SAIFMenu.InitializeControls` on `OnLoad` to set the text box's editable/visible state each render pass.

## Constraints and usage notes
- Consumers set `SAIFMenu.ContextViewStyle` (typically via markup) to choose the desired rendering behavior for a given host page.
