Third party Tribute.js and TextBox and RichTextBoxI intergration

Hello!

Is it possible in the current version of the mentioned controls to use Tribute.js third party tool for @mention like behaviour? 

I want to display a SfDropDown or a datalist at caret position trigged by a ampersand char. I managed to get the caret position by invoking some JS script, but I dont really know how exactly to display that div which will hold the dropdown or the datalist with bound values to be selected.

Anyone has any insight in this direction?

Thanks alot!

Catalin

Hi Cernat, 
 
 
Greetings from Syncfusion support. 
 
 
We have validated your query “Is it possible in the current version of the mentioned controls to use Tribute.js third party tool for @mention like behavior? I want to display a SfDropDown or a data list at caret position trigged by a ampersand char.” 
 
Currently, the requirement is not feasible with Blazor Rich Text Editor since the editor has no option to integrate Blazor components inside its content directly. Also, the AutoComplete dropdown needs to handle the filter operation using the ampersand with the popup instance. The process has more complex and DOM manipulation. 
 
But we have considered the Mention feature in Rich Text Editor as a feature request and logged the same, this feature will be included in any of the upcoming release. 
 
You can now track the current status of the report, review the proposed resolution timeline, and contact us for any further inquiries through this link: https://www.syncfusion.com/feedback/18726
