Is it possible to use RadEditor as text editor? I want to use the toolbar capabilities for injecting content but I need the editor to produce text instead of HTML and maintain new lines etc.

Hello Koren,

You can obtain the content of RadEditor as plain text along with new lines (/r/n) through the RadEditor1.Text property.

Please, note that the content area of RadEditor is an editable IFRAME and it does not offer the ability to edit plain text content only. Your users will be always able to paste or drag content with HTML formatting from another location and it will be rendered in Design mode.

Thank you. I used the Text property to access the text and saved it in the DB. The problem is that when I need to re-edit the text I need to set the Content property which renders the text without "new lines" because the <br/> tags are not present. What do you suggest?

Hi Koren,

Since the new line /n character is not rendered in HTML environment and you should convert it to <br/> tag before loading it in RadEditor. e.g.

RadEditor1.Content = RadEditor1.Content.Replace("\n", "<br/>");
