Creating an Embeddable Editor with RichTextEditor

The following is information on using the EmbeddableEditorBase Class to create a RichTextEditor. The RichTextEditor is an EmbeddableEditorBase -derived editor that is able to render and edit RTF (Rich Text Format) content from within an EmbeddableEditorOwnerBase implementer such as the WinGrid™. The RichTextEditor sample is available as part of the Infragistics Professional SDK install. By default, the sample is located in the following install folder, depending on your operating system:

  • XP — C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Infragistics\2023.2Ultimate UI for Windows Forms 2023.2\Samples\Win\WinGrid\CS\RICHTEXTEMBEDDABLEEDITOR

  • Vista — C:\Users\Public\Documents\Infragistics\2023.2Ultimate UI for Windows Forms 2023.2\Samples\Win\WinGrid\CS\RICHTEXTEMBEDDABLEEDITOR

Features

  • Displays and edits RTF (Rich Text Format) content.

  • Built-in open and save file functionality.

  • Implements all required EmbeddableEditorBase properties and methods and can be embedded in any consumer that provides an EmbeddableEditorOwnerBase implementation.

  • Can be easily embedded into the WinGrid control.

  • Uses Infragistics' flexible 'Key-Action Mappings' keyboard model so that advanced keyboard functionality can be easily used within an Infragistics control.
