How to use snippets with RadHtmlField

[Kristoffer Hiestand]

I am wanting to use Snippets with the Telerik.SharePoint.FieldEditor.RadHtmlField control in my page layouts but there is no property/method (i.e. Snippets.Add()) that allow me to add the snippets to each control.  Is the "snippets" function available for this control?  And if so, how are the snippets added?  If not, is there a work around?  I am using version 5.2.2.0.

Hi Kristoffer,

You can easily achieve the desired behavior, by adding the snippets in the respective ToolsFile.xml e.g.

<root>
   .......
  <snippets>
        <snippet name="Order Confirmation">
                <![CDATA[
                    <div style="width:300px;border:2px outset #D8D2BD;padding:34px;font-family:Arial, Verdana; font-size:11px;background-color:#F1EFE6;">

                    </div>
                ]]>
            </snippet>
            <snippet name="Email Signature">
                <![CDATA[
                    <div style="margin-top:30px;width:80%;border-top:1px dotted gray;padding-top:4px;font-family:Arial, Verdana; font-size:11px;">
