Functionality

Which browsers are supported?

RichTextBox supports the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge on both desktop and mobile devices.

Can I customize the toolbar?

Yes. Use the toolbar attribute to choose a preset (default, full, basic, ribbon, office) or pass a custom toolbar string with your own button layout. See the Custom Toolbar demo.

How does image upload work?

The package includes built-in upload endpoints mapped via app.MapRichTextBoxUploads(). Images are uploaded to wwwroot/uploads by default. The gallery dialog supports folder browsing, folder creation, and file upload.

Can I use custom CSS for the editor content?

Yes. Use content-css-url for an external stylesheet or content-css-text for inline CSS rules. See the Content CSS demo.

Does the editor support paste from Word?

Yes. The paste-mode attribute supports Auto (default), Text, Word, and Disabled modes. The Word mode strips Word-specific markup while preserving essential formatting. See the Paste from Word demo.

Is autosave available?

Yes. Set auto-save="true" with auto-save-key and auto-save-delay to persist draft content in localStorage. See the Autosave demo.

Can I set content length limits?

Yes. Use max-html-length to limit total HTML characters or max-text-length to limit visible text characters.

Migration

Can I migrate from the Web Forms RichTextEditor?

Yes. The ASP.NET Core package intentionally keeps familiar concepts from the Web Forms version. The office2007blue skin with the ribbon toolbar provides a matching visual target. See the Office 2007 Blue demo.

Are the toolbar presets the same as Web Forms?

The Core package supports default, full, basic, ribbon, and office toolbar presets. Custom toolbar strings use the same button name syntax. The overall layout is compatible with minor differences in available commands.

Where do I get help with migration?

Contact [email protected] for migration assistance, or review the live demos for configuration examples that match your existing Web Forms setup.
