replace "on the fly"

[otto]

Hello,

I am looking for a way to do a substitution while writing. Example: the user writes # greet-tab and '#greet' is replaced with 'best regards, yours'. -tab means: the user clicks the tab-button on his keyboard

thanks, Otto

Hi Otto, 

 

Syncfusion Greetings! 

 

You can use findAll and insertText API in DocumentEditor to replace text. To detect Tab Key, you can OnKeyDown Event Args in DocumentEditor. 

 

## Find All 

 

https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/document-editor/find-and-replace/#search 

 

## Replace 

 

container.GetEditor().InsertText("Hello"); 

 

 

## KeyDown 

 

Documentation in Typescript: Can you please check it and let us know if you statisfies with this and we will provide sample for your requirement.

Hi -- apologies if I shouldn't be replying on an old (and someone elses) post.

With ej2 link you supplied I see the following: "

documentEditor.keyDown

However, I don't see a keydown method in Blazor's version of the documentEditor. Is there a way to do this with Blazor's Syncfusion Word Processor control?

Thanks
