Silverlight Rich Text Editor (Demo)

Demo 1: Live Demo

Demo 2: Live Demo


Note: After not getting so much feedbacks from you guys, I realized that you guys really want to see the online demo that you can play around. So, we created those demos for you guys in very short time.. I haven’t implemented all features of Silverlight Rich Text Editor in my sample since I’m really busy these days. I will
keep on updating the demo..  Please feel free to let us know if you have any comment or suggestion.. You can also report a bug in this link.

Thanks.

    This is excellent. I hope people don’t compare this to the Ajax rich text editors. It took years for those to be developed and a lot of people finding solutions to the various challenges. Right now you’re working alone.

    Thanks..

    I would say that it is just a POC thing for Silverlight. As of now, Chris is the only one who is working on the control. I’m doing testing and creating demos and giving the suggestion for improvements. Some features that are available in Ajax Rich Text Editor won’t be available in our control due to a lot of reasons. (even some features (e.g. strikethrough doesn’t support in Silverlight))..

    And also, we don’t want to spend that much time on that control since we don’t know what Microsoft will give in next release of Silverlight. We will see what we can do when we get beta2. :)

    Finally a rich text editor for Silverlight, nice :-)

    I am interested in the copy and paste features, if we happen to use this editor or a similar editor in our applications in the future, we will be interested in copy and paste content from Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Internet Explorer.

    We have applications with rich text editors based on Microsoft InfoPath, and we noticed that our users usually copy and paste content from Word documents, or excel sheets, we also have user coping and pasting financial information from the internet to the rich text box.

    I don’t know if this works. If you can access the word specific clipboard information it should. But currently I will only get plain text through java script…

    Someone got an idea how to get this office formatted text from clipboard?

    I think there are some RTF to HTML converter… We can create one RTF to XAML converter when we get the XAML specification for Silverlight.
