Hello!
I have created an application using the Scaffolding Wizard and now want to replace the DataLayoutItem controls through a RichEditControl.
In the data model I have in the Properties with [DataType (DataType.MultilineText)].
I like to save a RTF text as a stream in the database and load the content to the RichEditControl.
Could you please prepare me an example for me.
Thank you very, very much advance and best regards!
Fritz
Hello Fritz,
You can use the corresponding overloads of the RichEditControl.LoadDocument and RichEditControl.SaveDocument methods to load or save a document to a stream. Also, these overloads provide a DocumentFormat parameter. Use the DocumentFormat.Rtf parameter value in the methods to save and load a document in the RTF format. Please refer to the following code snippet:
C#richEditControl1.LoadDocument(stream1, DocumentFormat.Rtf);
//...
richEditControl1.SaveDocument(stream2, DocumentFormat.Rtf);
If you want to bind the RichEditControl's Content to the view model property storing RTF text, I recommend you use the approach described in the How to bind RichEditControl to a text in different formats example. When the view model property is changed, you will be able to pass these changes to the database.
I hope that you find this information helpful.
