Problem with height when enabled = false

[Darren166]

Hi,

I had a problem with the fact that the height was set at 400px when radeditor was disabled via enabled = false.  I read a workaround in this thread http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-bagbee.aspx which suggested using

if (radEditor.Enabled == false)

radEditor.ControlStyle.Reset();

in the code behind.  This worked great and cleared the height from the div if the editor was disabled.  However I just installed a hotfix 2007.3.1428 that I was issued to solve a different problem and now the above no longer works.

Can you please help

Darren.

Hi Darren,

Indeed, the "radEditor.ControlStyle.Reset()" was working in the previous versions of RadEditor "Prometheus".  We found however, some problems in the previous Height implementation and changed it. Now, there is no need of the "radEditor.ControlStyle.Reset()" because, you can set the height directly.

I have set the AutoResizeHeight to true, but it only works well with Edit mode, with readonly mode it still shows a certain height even there is no content, although I didn't specify any height in the control.

Kindly help further as I was using the ControlStyle.Reset() too to resize for enabled=false before, but it is not working now.

Could someone give me an update on this? I'm having the same problem, just downloaded 515.35 and set AutoResizeHeight="true". Still generates a div like this:

<div id="ctl00_cphMain_edtCart" style="width:100%;height:400px;background-color:White;width:100%;">

Don't want it locked at 400px height. Should be auto or something.

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

You can use the following approach to achieve the desired behavior:
Please set style="height:100%" attribute inline into the editor's declaration - the style tag will be applied to the editor's content when it is in non-editable mode.

<telerik:RadEditor style="height:100%" Height="400" ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" Enabled="false" AutoResizeHeight="true">
    <Content>
    First line
    <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
    Last line
    </Content>
</telerik:RadEditor>

I hope this helps.
