Setting editor to readonly, but keep the toolbar

[Delphi]

Howdy,

I am using the editor with a custom button which highlights selected text and allows users to make comments on content. I need to set the content area of the editor to read-only, but I don't want to lose my button functionality. I tried enabled = false but that just dumped the content with no toolbar.

Thanks,
David

Hello David,

You can disable RadEditor on the client using the using the editor.enableEditing(false) method.
You can disable the typing in the content area by setting editor.set_editable(false);, but if a toolbar button is used the content area will become editable.

If you want to have non editable areas in the content area see this article: Editable and Non-editable Areas.

Thanks, I added the following, but it's erroring

$(

function() {

 

 

var editor = $("#<%=ceContents.ClientID%>");

 

editor.enableEditing(

false);

 

editor.set_editable(

false);

 

});

Error: Object doesn't support this property or method

on the editor.enableEditing line.

Hello David Lozzi,

You have wrote:
var editor = $("#<%=ceContents.ClientID%>");

but you should use

 var editor = $find(<%=ceContents.ClientID%>"");

as well as make sure that the editor is created on the page.

For example in the OnClientLoad event of RadEditor or in the pageLoad() event of ASP.NET AJAX.
