Scrollbars in RichTextEditor

[preeti_kanyal]

Is it possible to get vertical scrollbar inside body of richTextEditor when there is large data?
By keyboard up and down i am able to scroll to data but i need scrollbars too.

<smartgwt.version>12.1-p20200824</smartgwt.version>

Please suggest.

We're looking into it and will update here when we have more information.

We see the problem and are working on a fix. In the meantime, you should see scrolling working as expected if you call editor.setUseDesignMode(false).

Right now I am not able to find setUseDesignMode(false) on richTextEditor. Will this method on rich Text Editor available in future builds.

Right now I am using this version: <smartgwt.version>12.1-p20200824</smartgwt.version>

This is a new feature and hadn't been back-ported - we've added it to 12.1 for builds dated September 26 and later.

Thanks it worked for RichTextEditor.

Can you please suggest how can i get scrollbars in RichTextItem. As i am unable to find method setUseDesignMode() for RichTextItem.

If this is the default behavior you want, you can set it globally for all RichTextEditors, via RichTextEditor.setDefaultProperties()

Hi,

I have tried the following code:

RichTextItem projectNotesRichTextEditor = new RichTextItem(DSConst.ProjectSQL.PROJECT_NOTES, MESSAGES.projectNotes());
final RichTextEditor editor = new RichTextEditor();
editor.setUseDesignMode(false);
projectNotesRichTextEditor.setDefaultProperties(editor);

But it is giving me error.Attaching the screenshot.

I nedd scrollbars in RichTextItem.

That code sets the defaults on a RichTextItem. You want to set the default on the global RichTextEditor, like this:

final RichTextEditor defaults = new RichTextEditor();
defaults.setUseDesignMode(false);
RichTextEditor.setDefaultProperties(defaults);

Hi preeti_kanyal,

setting Default Properties on anything is done like this before you draw your first widget (=as your first line in onModuleLoad()):

        BooleanItem bi = new BooleanItem() {
            {
                setWidth("*");
                setHeight(defaultFormItemHeight);
                setLabelAsTitle(true);
            }
        };
        BooleanItem.setDefaultProperties(bi);

Best regards
