Footnote bug

[Philipp]

Hi,

I created a document with a footnote and saved it as rtf-file.
When I load the document I only see a superscripted hint in the text but not the footnote itself.
Do you have any suggestions?

Kind regards,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,

Thank you for getting to us about the issue.

Unfortunately, RadRichTextBox does not preserve footnotes in .rft files. If you are going to add and save footnotes in a document the only supported formats for now are .docx and .xaml. 
We also think that such functionality would be a nice enhancement to the control and we will consider it.

I hope that we have convinced you of our commitment to the issue. If you have any comments or other questions, do not hesitate to contact us again.

All the best, Yancho

Hi Yancho,

thank you for the information.

Are there any other things which are only supported for .docx?
Which format is the best supported and will be the best supported in the future? E.g. will there be some features which are only accessible while using .docx?

King regards,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,

XAML format is native to RadDocument's structure, so all supported features (with the exception of InlineUIContainers) are imported/exported without the need of additional handling.

DOCX format also has a very good support for all features. It has only a few limitations when exporting InlineUIContainers and custom elements (such as Custom Annotations) and respectively importing documents containing unsupported features (charts, shapes, etc.).

We can assure you that we are doing our best to develop enhancements to the control as soon as possible. The preferences and demands of our clients are highly valued. 

If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us again.

Kind regards,
