Issues with demo

[Kyle]

I'm interested in using the Editor control in a new project, but I'm concerned with the functionality in the Demo (https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/editor/index). For example, how do I change the properties of a cell in a table?  If I put my karat in the cell then click the Table Wizard button, I can choose a background color but it creates a whole new table within the cell -- but what I want is to modify the selected cell.

If I select the table, eight boxes appear at the corners and mid-points of the exterior border of the table.  I can drag these boxes to resize the table.  However, a copy of the boxes remains at the original size and they do not go away unless I refresh the page.

If I click the "View HTML" button then a dialog is displayed, but the text area for the HTML code is only two lines tall.  I'm unable to resize the control.

Are these all bugs in the Editor control?  Any idea when they may be resolved?

Thanks!

Hello Kyle,

We have had a bug in the Editor related to editing a table that has merged cells (which is the case in the demo): https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/issues/5896 The fix of this bug will be available in the upcoming R3 2020 release, due in mid September.

I've tested the behavior in a new table that does not have merged cells and was able to apply background color to the selected cell. See editor-1.png.

I did not notice duplication of table resize handles in the demo you linked. See editor-2.png, which shows the resize handles being displayed only around the table. Copies of the handles are not visible. Are there any specific user steps that need to be followed for the behavior to be exhibited?

As for the "View Html" tool, it works properly at my end. See editor-3.png. Have you noticed this behavior in the Overview demo? Could you post a screenshot that shows the dialog?

Hi, Ivan.

Thank you for your reply.

I am able to get the resize handles to draw incorrectly by playing around in the grid.  See resizeHandles.png.  Below is one set of instructions that reproduces the issue, for me:

1. Visit Editor Demo: https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/editor/index
2. Click inside a cell in the table
3. Click the "Delete row" button in the toolbar.
4. Use a keyboard shortcut to "Undo" the delete action.
5. Resize the table.
6. Observe two sets of resize handles.

I was able to reproduce the issue in both Safari and Chrome.

For the view HTML issue, I've attached a screenshot (viewHtml.png).  No special action is needed to observe this issue.  This issue occurs in Safari, but not Chrome.

Here's a video of both issues, if that's easier: https://youtu.be/W_cF7ykJNTY

Thanks!
