RichTextBox MVVM

[JEAN MICHEL CAMIZON]

Hello,

Is that possible to use th RichTextBoxAdv in a MVVM way ? I mean, I don't want to use code behind to set/get the text inside my RichTextBox I just want to bind to one of his properties.

I tried binding to Document and XAMLText without any success, I looked into the sample but i uses code behind and I don't want that since all my application uses MVVM.

I also found a RichTextBoxAdv.MVVM.WPF lib but I couldn't make it works.

Is there a way to do this in MVVM or do I need to use code behind ?

Hi Jean,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion products.

Currently RichTextBoxAdv control does not support binding of XAMLText property directly in Xaml, as a workaround you can achieve this requirement by defining a MVVM extension. We have prepared the WPF sample to illustrate the same to bind the XAMLText property of RichTextBoxAdv control using MVVM framework. Please do find the sample for the same from attachment.

Note: Kindly note that the XAMLText property will not be updated dynamically on content modifications done in RichTextBoxAdv, rather it will be updated only on accessing the XAMLText property (In Getter method). Hence we have used LayoutUpdated event, to get the content modifications done by the user in RichTextBoxAdv control and update the XAMLText to XAMLContent of view model.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
