Video: RichEdit Services Discussion

     

Check out this RichEdit collaboration services video below. In the video, Azret and I chat about the RichEdit control and it’s “services architecture”.

A little background…

The RichEdit control is a rich text editor control. It supports RichText (RTF) and a bunch of other really cool features (click here to read more about the control). There’s a version of the RichEdit for WinForms and even one for Silverlight. And both these versions share some cool features.

Services and Commands

One of the cool features of the RichEdit control is the services and commands architecture. This architecture makes it easy for you to add custom functionality to the RichEdit control. And in a recent blog post, Azret Botash did just this by creating a slick RichEdit collaboration demo. While his blog post is worth reading (link below), check out the video to see the demo in action.

Click the image below and watch the screencast as Azret and I:

  • Discuss the RichEdit’s Services architecture
  • Give a RichEdit collaboration demo
  • Discuss the demo setup
  • Talk about benefits of the RichEdit’s Services
  • Other possible scenarios

Hi mehul,

How long do you think it will be before the REC can handle HTML formatting? From what i can see there is a big market for an HTML control that will allow top level changes i.e text images etc, there is only 1 other control to my knowledge which is of any use where html is concerned and it is TextControl v15.

Thanks

Karl
