Rich Formatting Text Editor

I am using Infragistics WinForms 17.2. Trying to create a text box where a user can enter text and format it such as changing font, color, font weight, underline, italics, etc.

Something very similar to this the same type of functionality in which I am entering this question.

Thanks so much for any assistance.

Hello,

I have been looking into your requirement and found this forum thread where a similar question has been discussed. According to it, the best suggestion is to use an UltraFormattedTextEditor (control for displaying and editing formatted text that also has support for displaying hyperlinks, images, and horizontal lines) and a toolbar and code it yourself.

I created a small sample with UltraFormattedTextEditor and some buttons in order to demonstrate how such functionalities could be achieved. Mostly you could do this styling through the ApplyStyle (if doing a run-time alteration of the selection).

However, since you would need a lot of functionalities, they’re not accomplished through the same properties and my suggestion is to take a look into this topic in our documentation where could be found a  list of UltraFormattedTextEditor Class Members.

Attached you will find my sample for your reference. Please test it on your side and let me know if you require any further assistance on the matter.

Sincerely,
