I am using a RtfBox for inplace editing. In this rtfbox I can set parts of the text to bold, inlined and so on.

But how can I get this formatting to appear on a shape.

I have set the EnableStyledText . And it worked.

Now I have another problem though,

As I said earlier, I have a RichTextBox as my inplace editor. I have no problem to get the formatted text to appear on the shape but the problem is when I try to edit the formatted text again. Then the formattings is gone


When I debug the Diagram_CreateEditControl even I can see that The richtextbox has the formatting in its RTF property. But no formatting is shown in the inplaceeditor control.

I've tried that but then the textbox show the rtf code like

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1053{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Microsoft Sans Serif;}}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\b\f0\fs17 Bold\b0  tesst\par
\par
}
 

I am doing that already, the conversion works fine.

I have tested the rtfstring and it validates.

This is how my CreateEditControl event looks like

void Diagram_CreateEditControl(object sender,InPlaceEditEventArgs e) {



if(e.Node is ShapeNode) {

            //editor = new InplaceEditor();
                editor = new RichTextBox();
                e.EditControl = editor;




editor.Click += new EventHandler(Editor_Click);




editor.MouseHover += new EventHandler(Editor_MouseHover);




String text = e.Item.GetTextToEdit();




e.Item.SetEditedText("");




RectangleF docRect = e.Item.GetEditRect(PointF.Empty);




editor.Bounds = diagramView1.DocToClient(docRect);




editor.Visible = true;
                /



    editor.Rtf = "{\\rtf1\\ansi\\ansicpg1252\\deff0\\deflang1053{\\fonttbl{\\f0\\fnil\\fcharset0 microsoft sans serif;}{\\f1\\fnil\\fcharset0 Microsoft Sans Serif;}}\r\n{\\colortbl ;\\red0\\green0\\blue0;}\r\n\\viewkind4\\uc1\\pard\\cf1\\b\\f0\\fs10 Bold \\b0\\i italics \\ul\\i0 underlined\\cf0\\ulnone\\f1\\fs17\\par\r\n}\r\n";






editor.ContextMenuStrip = contextMenuStrip2;










Editing = true;



}


} 

When the editcontrol displays the text the formatting is gone.

Hi guys!
Quote:


Which editor do you use? RichTextBox? Because if I use it as inplace editor for editing shapes text there is only area for text without any icons or whatever... How do you set bold/italic...? Via code? Maybe im blind and I dont know to use RichTextBox

So how can I edit RTF text without any 3rd part solutions (DevExpress,...) or without using code solution?

Thx.

Hi Stoyo!

But I didnt find any RTF control with panel/buttons which I need. Only that one which I described above. Could you pls state concrete example from demo browser + screen?

Thx.
