Hi,

I am very new to Syncfusion. I have written a react component using "DocumentEditorContrainerComponent". On this component I want to handle the contentCHange event. But I am not getting how to get the data of the changed content.

Thanks
Sachin

Hi Sachin, 
 
Thank you for contacting the Syncfusion support. 
 
You can bind contentChange to DocumentEditorComponent like below. 
  
  
Documentation link: 
  
  
From this event, you can access documenteditor instance by event.source.  
  
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks Suriya for the response. What I am looking here is, how to get the changed content from the even object.

Ex: My original document had following line

"Hello everyone"

The change now is

"Hello "

As you see, I deleted the word  "everyone", now how can I get this diff in contentChange using event object?

Thanks
Sachin

Hi Sachin, 
 
Thanks for your update. 
 
Currently, DocumentEditor does not have support to get current changed content from content Change event. 
  
Can you please share your end requirement briefly? So that we can investigate further and provide you solution at earliest. 


Regards,
Suriya M.

Thanks Suriya. Basically I am trying to solve two problems. 

1. Send the changes to my backend server, so want to send only the changed content to backend rather than sending the entire SFTD JSON object.
2. Collaborative editing - The main problem that I am trying to solve.  Collaborative editing functionality like google docs. Is there a way I can achieve this more efficiently?

Thanks and Regards.
Sachin

Hi Sachin, 
 
 
Thanks for your update. 
 
Send the changes to my backend server 
  
On contentchange event, you can load the whole Sfdt data to server but cannot able to detect changed content or particular data and load back to server. 
  
Using serialize(), you can load the whole Sfdt string only. 
Collaborative editing 
Currently, DocumentEditor does not have support for simultanoues editing of multiple users. We have already logged feature request for this requirement. We will implement this feature in any of our upcoming release.

Now, you can track the status of this feature through below feedback link:

Please let me know if you have any questions. 
 
 
Regards,

Hi Sachin, 
 
We do not have any immediate plan to implement this feature. 
  
We usually have an interval of at least three months between releases.For each and every release, we will prepare the feature wishlist. The feature implementation would also greatly depend on the factors such as product design, code compatibility and complexity. We will consider the below feature as wishlist to any of our upcoming release. We will update our road map & the scheduled status of the below feedback link once it is taken for implementation. We will update you once these feature are implemented. 
  
Now, you track the status of this feature through below feedback link. 
  
 
Regards, 
Suriya M.
