InlineUIContainer : How to update the width and Height

[Patrick]

Hi,

These lines of code create a new InlineUIContainer, with a button with the size 30X30 :

            Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.InlineUIContainer container = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.InlineUIContainer();
            CustomButton button = new CustomButton();
            container.UiElement = button;
            container.Width = 30;
            container.Height = 30;
            this.radRichTextBox.InsertInline(container);
            radRichTextBox.UpdateEditorLayout();

But, let's say i made a mistake. Just after the UpdateEditorLayout, let's say i want to change again the width and Height :

            Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.InlineUIContainer container = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Model.InlineUIContainer();
            CustomButton button = new CustomButton();
            container.UiElement = button;
            container.Width = 30;
            container.Height = 30;
            this.radRichTextBox.InsertInline(container);
            radRichTextBox.UpdateEditorLayout();

            container.Width = 130;
            container.Height = 130;
            radRichTextBox.UpdateEditorLayout();

For some strange reason, in the editor, the size of my container is still 30X30... Once you setup the width and height, on creation, is there any way to change it later on?

Best regards,

Hi Patrick,

InsertInline actually inserts a copy of the DocumentElement you pass it, so the InlineUIContainer you're modifying is not the one inside the document. You can use the following code snippet to obtain the InlineUIContainer that is in the RadDocument after you call InsertInline:

InlineUIContainer container = new InlineUIContainer(new Button(), new Size(40, 40));
document.InsertInline(container);
InlineUIContainer insertedContainer = ((UIElementLayoutBox)document.CaretPosition.GetPreviousInlineBox()).AssociatedUIElementInline;
insertedContainer.Width = 100;
insertedContainer.Height = 100;

Let us know if you need additional assistance.

All the best,
Ivailo
