Editor Does not display correct on first hit

[Roger Barnes]

Radeditor doesn't show correctly when first loaded, if I refresh the page it displays correctly.

The same issue as mentioned in this post, http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/editor/editor-does-not-display-correct-on-first-hit.aspx

Has there been any resolve to this?

Thanks in advance.

If ToolbarMode is specified as something other than default, this behavior does not happen, or if you specify a custom Tools File, it does not happen.

 

ToolbarMode

 

="ShowOnFocus" ToolsFile="~/SysAdmin/EditorTools.xml"

I copied the Tools files from http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/editor/default-toolsfile-xml-file.aspx
and with the DefaultTools even though I specify the toolsfile, I get the same result, however if I use the FullSetOfTools I don't.

There must be something in the Default tools that's causing this, or so it seems.

If I refresh the page, it works fine as specified in the original post.  If I create a custom tools files, it seems to work fine on first load.

Hello Roger,

Did you tried the provided suggestions in the forum thread:

- register the external RadEditor skins as it is shown in this KB article: Registering an external skin of RadEditor?

- or register the CDN skins.

There is another solution but it caused a height side effect. Here it is:

<style type="text/css">
    .reToolbar
    {
        width: 100%!important;
    }
</style>

Kind regards,

Yes, the only way I could get around this issue was by either specifying something other than "Default" for ToolbarMode, for example
Toolbarmode="ShowonFocus" doesn't cause this issue with NO Toolsfile specified.

I can create my own custom ToolsFile and specify it, NO problems.

If I use the DefaultToolsFile xml as specified by Telerik, see post above, I get the same behavior.

If I use the FullSetOfTools xml as specified by Telerik, it also works.

I think for now to get around this issue I use my own custom tools files.

Hello Roger,

The problem is really odd and it could be due to some XML tag or attribute in the Default ToolsFile.xml file.
Can you please compare the default and your custom toolsfile xml files with WinMerge or another diff tool and see whether there are some special attributes or tags that is causing the problem?
