Thinking Out Loud

Swwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Am I in a dream?  Pinch-Pinch... nope... this is real!!!  You don't know how long I've been waiting for this... o.k. you probably do... about 3 years.  This is GREAT news!!!  I can't wait!!!  Woo-hoo!!!

In my excitement I forgot to ask:  I know that you can't promise anything... but is there any way you could give maybe a brief description of what it will and won't be able to do on its initial release?  Integration with the XtraSpellChecker?  Word merge capabilites?  Import and export file types(rtf, docx)? Searching capabilities?

Truly excited.

For us, we prefer a little less features at the first release - which we hope is 8.3 - but a nice toolbar that goes with it and - more importantly - integration with XAF at the same time.

Every component developped by Devexpress should be integrated upon release in XAF. All components developped by Devexpress in the past should be fully integrated by the next release.

For example, still dont understand why XtraScheduler recurrence and reminders are still not supported out of the box in the XAF. Mind boggling.

About time!!!!! :-)

Thank you!  I cannot wait till this is released!

Is this just not simply FUN!  The land of DevExpress and .NET - this is so cool!

I'm liking the idea, merge functions will be included I hope

Yeah I agree, we been waiting for this for ages and ages and ages, erm *cough*... gotta give up the fags.

What would be also cool is to have combo HTML / RTF editor as well as non-UI utility to convert between RTF and HTML and being able to extract plain text from both of these types of editors.

BTW, I was for some time out of WinForms: does WinForms toolset have HTML editor?

This is GREAT news!!!  I can't wait!!!

What about tables? This is IMO the most important feature.

We're working on tables.

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

I'm just a little eager... but... any updates on how this is coming?  Maybe you could sneek some more screen shots or give us any little updates regarding this?  This is arguably one of the most anticipated components that DevExpress will release.... :)

We're excited about this control.  We're planning to use it to offer a mail merge feature to our users, so put us down for one vote for some way to drop a token into the document that behaves like a token rather than like a string of text.  Even without that capability, we're planning to wait for the DevExpress control.  We've looked at other RTF controls and they stink.  Based on our long history with DevExpress, we're betting yours will be first rate from version 1.  We're just about to implement your scheduler control and I'm overwhelmed by how polished and feature-rich it is.  

In July, I posted a few early screenshots of our WinForms RTF control and as a result, we received numerous

We've been waiting a long time for an RTF control and we are  really excited to hear about this new control. Since we have some projects coming up where we have a strong need for this control can you provide an unofficial list of features that are currently scheduled for the next release, and specifically the support for MS Word editing you mentioned above?

Thanks,

Joel

It like visual studio environment editor? Can't it?

very impressive. I've been doing researches about 2 years as an application like this. I am a big fun of devexpress.

Thanks for this features.
