I'm trying out Lite RadEditor for MOSS on my WSS3 site to edit lists. Followed the instructions in help and everything went super-smoothly and it was up and running in minutes (kudos telerik!)

My only problem is that when I click Edit on a list item, for example a wiki page, the content area is really small in both IE and Firefox. If I'm trying to edit a large wiki page this is a significant problem.

Wondering if it is possible to make the window larger, or better yet have it expand to fill available space. Can I edit the CSS to do this?

Thanks,
Mike J.

Hi,

You can control the editor size by modifying the ListConfigFile.xml file in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\wpresources\RadEditorSharePoint\4.1.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor\ on your server.

Currently the width and height are set to the following:

  <property name="Height">240px</property>
  <property name="Width">500px</property>

you can increase these values or you can experiment with percent values (e.g. 100%) and see if the editor will stretch to fill the available space.

Thanks Lini, that did the trick.

I found that setting width to 100% results in a reasonably-sized window, but it's still a little small because one of the container divs somewhere seems to have a fixed width. One could probably hunt it down in the HTML source and maybe tweak the SharePoint form but it ends up being a lot of time for one small issue. Easier to set it to 800px and call it a day :)

Setting the height to a percentage results in a zero-height editing area.
 "Auto" does not work and generates an error.
