Support For Multiple Rich Text Boxes with RadRibbon

[Kevin]

hey guys,

not sure if this belongs on this forum OR the RadRibbon forum, but its the RichTextBox that i'm most interested in, basically the problem we have, is i have a list of 0 - N controls we call these ActivityControls, each Activity has a TWO RichTextBox controls,

So I have a Ribbon control to control my list of controls, with a Contextual Tab for the Text and Table Controls (taken from the telerik demo)

Is it possible for this singular set of controls to control potentially hundreds of RichText Controls?

If you have a demo of this functionality that'd be brilliant!

Cheers
Regards
Kevin.

Hi kevin,

RadRichTextBoxRibbonUI can control only one RadRichTextBox at a time, but you can change the control that the commands are performed on by changing the DataContext of the RibbonUI at all times. Here is the sample code:

this.radRichTextBoxRibbonUI.DataContext = this.radRichTextBox1.Commands;

You can set the DataContext on GotFocus of the rich text box for example. The number of RadRichTextBoxes is not limited. You can find attached a demo for 2 RichTextBoxes.

Kind regards,
Iva
