RadEditor bullets in Legacy Block mode

[John]

I've got an application with lots of existing text from a prior version of the RadEditor (2014), and it's all in NewLineMode = Br, so the lines are separated by <br/> tags. One option I read about was putting in a bit of JS which lets the new version (2017.3.913) use "legacy behavior" for block comments, such as bulleting lines of text. I tried it, but found it had another problem: It would duplicate the lines it was bulleting. See attached images for the "story".

This is low priority for me, since I've already decided not to use Legacy mode anyway (nor BR line mode). Otherwise I would be opening a ticket. But since it's not that important to me, I thought I'd just ask about it here, and see if anyone else has noticed this, or if the company is already aware of it.

Hi,

Can you please specify under which browser do you test the legacy Insert Ordered and Unordered List commands? I am unable to replicate any problems in Chrome and Firefox with the latest build 2017.3.913 of RadEditor and this configuration:

<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server" />
<script type="text/javascript" src='<%= Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(typeof(RadEditor), "Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.RadEditor.Commands.LegacyCommands.js") %>'></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(typeof(RadEditor), "Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.RadEditor.Commands.LegacyInlineCommands.js") %>"></script>


<telerik:RadEditor ID="RadEditor1" runat="server" NewLineMode="Br">
    <Content>
Header<br />
    <br />
    Line 1<br />
    Line 2<br />
    Line 3<br />
    <br />
    Footer
    </Content>
</telerik:RadEditor>

Browser is Internet Explorer 11. See attached pictures of my source code and the browser About dialog.

Hi,

Thank you for the extra details. I managed to repro the problem in IE11 and since the solution, which was based on the original code of the commands, was released prior the official release of IE11, this browser version is not supported by the Insert Ordered and Unordered List legacy commands.

The suggested approach is to use the new commands, which follow strictly the MS Word way of creating bullets and which works properly in the modern browsers.

Thanks! As I said, I'd already decided not to use the Legacy option anyway, and also to go forward with the P newline, so I'm all set. But it's always good to know the explanation for something, and now you'll know what's going on if anyone else reports the same problem. Have a good day and happy holiday season!
