Find RadRichTextBox from RadDocument

[Joël]

Hi,

I need to find RadRichTextBox which contains RadDocument of DataField (custom that I created)

[Joël]

An answer please, I am wedged there.

Hi Laurent,

I am afraid I don't understand your question.
Are you creating custom documents by inheriting from RadDocument? In general, extending the document element is not supported.
If you share some more details about your scenario, we may be able to suggest a better approach for implementing the required functionality.

All the best,

In fact, I created a CustomDataField, and I would call a method of the RadRichTextBox from my CustomDataField but in CustomDataField, I have access only RadDocument. So I wanted to know if there was any way to recover from the RadRichTextBox RadDocument.

Hello Laurent,

Unfortunately, this will not be possible. RadDocument is unaware of the existence of RadRichTextBox and does not have a way to obtain a reference to the control that it is displayed in.

If you'd like, you can elaborate on the methods and properties of the rich text box you need to access. When it comes to modifying the document, some of the properties and methods of RadRichTextBox have analogous ones in RadDocument. It's a long shot, but it might be possible to achieve the effect you need using the document's API only.

No, it will not meet my needs as it is to call a specific method that I created a heritage of RadRichTextBox. I walk around the problem by creating a Dictionary <MyRadRichTextBox, RadDocument>.
