Read, edit and write RTF files

Question

Hi,

I like to use the RichInk or a simular control to read, edit and write existing RTF files.

 

Tried a few commercial controls like the one from www.dsrtech.com, but can't reach them by email (don't exist anymore??), http://www.spellbuddy.com/SukiRichInk/SukiRichInk.asp but no repsonses to emails.

 

Tried using the RichInk control from www.opennetcf.com, but can not find good examples for VS2005 and C# (there is only older stuff available).

 

Is there some controls and sample code (C# with VS2005) which I can use which shows me a little bit more about RichText control and the stuff I like to do.

For editting, I only like to change font color, size and type (bold, italic).

 

Thanks and best regards,

Egbert

Answer 1

My mistake - it appears to work IF, and only if, the top control associated with the splitter is docked using the full docked property. Before I was trying with the bottom control using the full docked property. So in summary, it works if: topControl.Docked = DockStyles.Full; bottomControl.Docked = DockStyles.Bottom; I'm gonna submit some code for this one ;)

Answer 2

I got similar error in DataGrid docked in new form after reloading DataSource in DataGrid when new record count is bigger then older and resising form(!). Workaround: myDataGrid.Dock=DockStyle.Top; myForm.Show(); myDataGrid.Dock=DockStyle.Fill; May be any trick like this will be useful.

I haven't looked at this so I don't know if it's a bug or not, but if you are pretty sure it is you might want to add it to this site which has a list of some .NET bugs. Hopefully the guys at MS will check it out.
