Read-only and hidden caret
posted

I have set up a XamRichTextEditor to display HTML text as read-only, and that appears to be working.  However the caret is still showing, and although I am trying to set the CaretColor property, Visual Studio reports an error that "The property 'CaretColor' was not found in type 'XamRichTextEditor'."

Is there some reference missing?

<ig:HtmlDocumentAdapter x:Name="htmlDocAdapter" Document="{Binding ElementName=browser2, Path=Document}" Value="{Binding HtmlText}" RefreshTrigger="ContentChanged" />

<ig:XamRichTextEditor x:Name="browser2" Grid.Column="0" Margin="10" IsReadOnly="True" BorderThickness="0" CaretColor="Transparent">

ig:XamRichTextEditor>

    Hello Walter,

    I followed the steps you suggested and was unable to reproduce the behavior you're describing. I did not get an error saying that CaretColor was not found in type xamRichTextEditor. I did get however, get an error with the CaretColor being Transparent. The CaretColor must be opaque, so to hide it, I would consider changing the CaretColor to be the same color as the background of the XamRichTextEditor.

    I have attached the sample project I used to test this.  Please test this project on your PC; whether or not it works correctly may help indicate the nature of this problem.

    If the project does not work correctly, this indicates either a problem possibly specific to your environment, or a difference in the DLL versions we are using.  My test was performed using version 14.1.20141.2027 in Infragistics WPF 2014 Volume 1.

    If the project does show the product feature working correctly, this indicates a possible problem in the code of your application.  It will help if you can provide a small, isolated sample application that demonstrates the behavior you are seeing.

    Or, if this sample project is not an accurate demonstration of what you're trying to do, please feel free to modify it and send it back, or send a small sample project of your own if you have one.

    Please let me know if I can provide any further assistance.

    Sincerely,
    Andrew
