I am seeing the following bad behavior in the RichTextEditor control an want to know if there is any workaround or updated code I should be using. I am using version 2.1.514.17771 of the Mindscape.SilverlightElements assembly. Issues: 1) After about the first 100 charactrs or so the control input becomes really slow. It will even stop reading some input keyboard strokes, thus causing a lot of mis spellings. 2) On word wrap it will consistently miss the character input at point of the word wrap. 3) As a user types into it it seems to be losing focus and sometimes the focus will land on the dialog box's OK button and close out unexpectedly. Just to make sure it wasn't some weird interaction with any of my other code in that project I tried this on a test app with nothing but a button on the form and am seeing all the same bad behaviors. These behaviors are making the control unusable for us. |

Progress on these fixes are going well. The focus bug and the text wrapping issue is a thing of the past. We're currently working on performance improvements throught the whole control and resolving other little bugs we have found. -Jason |

Hello The updated control is now available! In order to fix these issues and more, we have recreated the control almost from scratch. This new control has replaced the old one. Because of this, the API is slightly changed. If you were using much of the API before, you'll find most of the methods have now moved to RichTextEditor.Document. The HTML methods are still on the control itself. There will be more information about this new control coming soon, but let me know any time if you have questions. The bugs you mentioned and more have been resolved, and the performance has been greatly improved. The new control is available for download right now from the latest nightly build. You can download the nightly build by going to your account page: http://www.mindscapehq.com/store/myaccount Let us know how it goes. -Jason |
