Rich text editor control and displaying text in Columns

Is there a way to display the text edited in a rich text editor control back in the column once it is saved? I have a "Note:" field that I want people to be able to edit in a rich text editor, but when they save the data I want all of the text to show in a column. Is that possible. Currently with the cell type "RichText" if the Note starts with a carriage return then even with text in the control that pops in the correct place, nothing is showing in my column control. Should I just leave the Cell Type alone until the cell is clicked, and then change to the RichText editor, and then post saving the editor return the cell type to a differing type? Some direction would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi George,

The RichText cell control in the library allows you to edit richtext via a dropdown panel. It does not allow you to edit the text in-place.

You can derive the GridRichTextBoxCellModel and GridRichTextBoxCellRenderer classes to use an embedded RichTextBox in the cell to do the active editing.

See the following forum for more details.
