Radtextbox click behaviour

[Jan Hesselgren]

Hello, I'm sorry if this already has been discussed or is described in the documentation, but I couldn't find anything.

If a Radtextbox conatins a string longer than can be displayed and I click it, the marker wont appear where I click, it appears in the last part of the string.

How can I make the marker appear where I click?

Thanks

Hi Jan Hesselgren,

Unfortunately, this is a known issue, which will be fixed in the next version of RadControls (Q2 2008). Meanwhile, the only way to workaround this is to set the necessary property of the internal textbox control by using reflection.

You could add the code below in the constructor of the form, where the RadTextBox is:

    object textbox = radTextBox1.TextBoxElement.TextBoxItem.HostedControl;
    TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(textbox)["SelectOnFocus"].SetValue(textbox, false);

If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to write us again.

Hello Gabriele,

Thank you for writing.

I have tested the described scenario with version 1326 and on my end it works as expected - the cursor is placed wherever you click. Please refer to the attached video.

Should you continue experiencing this issue, please provide me with details on how can I reproduce it, so I can investigate your case and provide you with adequate support.

All the best,
Stefan
