Hi,
Is it possible to create a HTML Mail editor (similar to outlook) using your WPF controls?
I found this great example , but would prefer to have a WPF version instead of resorting to Winforms (http://ko.infragistics.com/community/forums/t/72807.aspx)
Thanks.
Best regards,
Alan
Hello Alan,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into it and I created a sample project for you with the functionality you want. Basically I used XamRibbon to create the Tools at the Top. Also I created the UI for the Email writing. I add some test email servers and users, but you will have to set your own ones in order to make it work correctly. Please let me know if this heslp yu or you need further assistance on this matter.
Looking forward for your reply.
Hi Stefan,
Thanks a lot for your reply and the example you created! The example correclty demonstrates the use of the Ribbon to achieve a similar Outlook style, however I need to be able to compose HTML messages and the WPF Textbox isn't able to do that. That's why i asked if is was possible to create HTML emails.
I know that Infragistics carries an ASP.NET HTML Editor, and the UltraFormattedTextEditor from the Windows kit also seems to be able to do it (according to the URL i posted). Is there a WPF control capable of displaying and editing HTML text ?
Once again, thanks.

Also I can say that you can use the UltraFormattedTextEditor in a WPF application. Here it is explained how to use WinForms controls in WPF:

Thanks a lot Stefan. I will probably use the UltraFormattedTextEditor right now and see if it can be replaced with a native WPF control in the near future.
