Hi,
I'd like to know how I can use the copy and paste on objects of type custom using InlineUIContainer class.
I did some tests, but I could not duplicate the object, also using an override CopyableInlineUIContainer with the functions CopyPropertiesFromOverride/CopyContentFromOverride.

The object of type InlineUIContainer contains a control RadButton whose content is an image. I also linked to the button RadButton an event MouseDoubleClick to show custom dialog box.

This is a sample code:

string controlName = "PLACEHOLDER_" + getNewId(); // ex. PLACEHOLDER_1

string controlTag = getNewTag(); // ex. 100231

var button = new RadButton

{

Name = controlName,

Tag = controlTag, // this tag is used to retrieve custom properties from database

Width = 100,

Height = 32,

};

// add the image to content

button.Content = this.getCustomUIElementByPlaceholder(message, controlName);

button.MouseDoubleClick += SelectPlaceHolder; // event fired when user doubleclick the button

// create the UI element

// new class with copyable=true override

var container = new CopyableInlineUIContainer { UiElement = button, Width = button.Width, Height = button.Height, Tag = controlName };

// original code

// var container = new InlineUIContainer { UiElement = button, Width = button.Width, Height = button.Height, Tag = controlName };

// invoke the insert method

// Note: editor if a WPF control of type RadRichTextBox

editor.InsertInline(container);

// add a text coomment

string sContentComment = "Custom placeholder NAME " + controlName + " TAG " + controlTag;

var comment = new Comment(sContentComment) { Name = string.Concat("m", controlTag) };

editor.ShowComments = true;

var startPosition = editor.Document.CaretPosition;

var endPosition = new DocumentPosition(startPosition);

startPosition.MoveToCurrentWordStart();

endPosition.MoveToCurrentWordEnd();

editor.Document.Selection.AddSelectionStart(startPosition);

editor.Document.Selection.AddSelectionEnd(endPosition);

editor.Document.InsertComment(startPosition, endPosition, comment);

If I try to duplicate the object, only the comment is actually copied.

Is there any solution for this?

Thanks,
Michele Fochi
