Embedded image and not linked

Hi,

Is there a way in the SfRichTextBoxAdv to insert and image but have it embedded into the document and not linked to the source file?

When the editor content is exported (or linked with a string property through MVVM) as HTML the images are linked through the <image src=""/> tag using the full path to the source file, so wonder if there is a way that the image is embedded using data instead of the file path.

Thanks in advance.

Hi David García,

In SfRichTextBoxAdv control, we have provided an option to specify HTML export settings. Using this event ImageNodeVisitedEvent of the HtmlImportExportSettings instance, you can get or set the image stream and image source. But currently, we have an issue with modifying the image source. we will validate this and update you with further details on 21st April 2022.

As a workaround, we have created a sample application, where the image is inserted as a stream through
InsertPicture(), and when exported as HTML, the image is maintained as the Embedded image which can be downloaded below,

Hi David García,

We have confirmed the issue with “Image is not embedded on modifying the image source by ImageNodeVisitedEvent” and logged the defect report in the SfRichTextBoxAdv control. The fix for this bug will be included in our upcoming essential studio weekly NuGet release which is estimated to be
available on 4th May 2022.

Once the weekly NuGet is released, we will provide you with a sample application to modify the image source and export it as an embedded image in the HTML.
