Missing text cursor (caret) at small font size

[Rotem]

Hi,
When I’m using font size smaller that 12 in the radRichText box - the caret is disappears.

When I’m enlarging the font size to 12 or more - the caret appeared again.

Do you know what’s causing this and how can I fix this?

Thanks

Hi Rotem,

We were not able to reproduce the issue on our end using the latest Q2 release (2011.2.712). Could you make sure that you are using this version of the control and if that is the case, open a support ticket with a sample application which reproduces the issue.
Looking forward to your reply.

Best wishes,

Hi Iva

I didn’t succeed creating a small sample application with that problem. So I guess the problem caused by styles.

How can I override the caret style?
I think that the caret width is related to font size and when the font size too small the caret disappeared.

Hi Rotem,

The problem must be that you have a default style, which overrides the style of the caret. In order to avoid this behavior, you can declare an empty style in the resources of the rich text box like this:

<telerik:RadRichTextBox x:Name="editor">
    <telerik:RadRichTextBox.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="telerikUI:Caret" />
        <!-- or -->
        <Style TargetType="TextBox" />
        <!-- or -->
        <Style TargetType="Rectangle" />
    </telerik:RadRichTextBox.Resources>
</telerik:RadRichTextBox>

provided that you declare the telerikUI namespace like this:

xmlns:telerikUI="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Documents.UI;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Documents"

If this does not help, we would appreciate a sample project or just the styles you are using, so that we can identify the cause of the issue. Best wishes,

<Style TargetType="telerikUI:Caret" /> worked.

Thanks.
