InputAccessoryView Buttons Not Working / Not Synchronized with Toolbar of RadRichTextEditor on iPads

[Andrey]

Description:

We are experiencing an issue with the RadRichTextEditor on iPad when using the built-in InputAccessoryView buttons that appear above the virtual keyboard (Bold, Italic, Underline)

 

Observed Behavior:

  •  The buttons in the InputAccessoryView do not trigger formatting commands in the editor.

  •  The state of these buttons is not synchronized with the main RadRichTextEditor toolbar, pressing toolbar items in the toolbar does not update the corresponding buttons in the InputAccessoryView, and vice versa.

  •  This occurs consistently on iPad.

 

Expected Behavior:

  •  InputAccessoryView buttons should perform the corresponding formatting actions.

  •  Their state should be synchronized with the main toolbar buttons of the editor.

 

Environment
Maui - 9.0.120

Xcode 16.4

Hi Andrey,

In general, the operations that can be applied to the RichTextEditor can be done using the commands https://www.telerik.com/maui-ui/documentation/controls/richtexteditor/commands or the built-in toolbar items https://www.telerik.com/maui-ui/documentation/controls/richtexteditor/toolbar/overview The RichTextEditor has a toolbar that is developed to execute the exposed commands. This is how the control is implemented. The toolbar that you describe is not part of the RichTextEditor and the RichTextEditor toolbar. This is the native iOS UI Toolbar which is different toolbar.

I have logged a feature request on your behalf whether this external native toolbar can be integrated with the editor. This is the link to the item: https://feedback.telerik.com/maui/1706274-richtexteditor-ios-review-whether-the-native-ios-toolbar-should-be-integrated-with-the-editor-operations When there is an update, this will be addressed in the item.

For now the solution is using the built-in toolbar we have for the RichTextEditor.

Hi Didi, thanks for the answer.

So is there any way to disable/hide additional items in native keyboard toolbar for now? Nothing related to the RichTextEditor implementation?
