How to use HyperlinkRangeStart?

[Gerrit Fölster]

Hi Telerik Team,

How can I insert a Hyperlink into my document using HyperlinkRangeStart and HyperlinkRangeEnd?
I didn't find any hints in the online documentation.

Thanks,
Gerrit

Hello Gerrit Fölster,

We are working on updating our online documentation, but still we are little behind regarding HyperlingRangeStart/End articles.

Currently, the most straight forward way to use the new hyperlinks is trough the InsertHyperlink methods of the RadRichTextBox class. To do that you will first need to create HyperlinkInfo object where the URI and other important properties of the hyperlink are defined. Here is a short example:

Copy Code

HyperlinkInfo info = new HyperlinkInfo();
info.NavigateUri = "http://www.telerik.com";
radRichTextBox.InsertHyperlink(info, "telerik");

There are several overloads of the InsertHyperlink method, so you can use the one most suited for your needs. All these methods use HyperlinkRangeStart and HyperlinkRangeEnd when inserting the hyperlink so there is no need for you to work directly with these classes.

There are also InsertHyperlink methods in the RadDocument class, but keep in mind that if you use them you won't have the Undo/Redo functionality as they work directly with the document.
 
Sorry for the inconvenience caused insufficient documentation of the new hyperlink API. We are working on bringing our online help up to date as we speak.

Greetings,
Alex
