The Telerik Blazor Telerik Editor Insert Hyperlink functionality is not consistent with other Telerik Editor components and non Telerik Editors. Usually when dealing with Editors and the Insert Hyperlink feature, you can insert a hyperlink without need to select and convert existing text. You can also usually use the ctrl+k keyboard shortcut instead of clicking on the button. This does not work in the Telerik Blazor Editor.

The differences and lack of functionality has been raised as an issue by end users.

Expected Behaviour

1. Ensure no text is selected. The Insert Hyperlink button should be enabled.
2. Click the Insert Hyperlink button or press ctrl+k.
3. Enter values for web address, text, tooltip and "open link in new window".
4. Click insert. An anchor tag with the given text, link, etc. is created.

This can be reproduced on any of the Kendo UI for jQuery demo pages. It can also be reproduced within the editor on this very form.

Actual Behaviour

1. Ensure no text is selected. The Insert Hyperlink button is not enabled and cannot be clicked.
2. You must select existing text to be able to convert it to a hyperlink.

This can be reproduced on any of the demo pages that has the hyperlink button.

When adding an icon such as <i class="fa-light fa-envelope"></i> (the format which FontAwesome recommends), the icon's HTML disappears upon saving. We figured this was maybe due to the type of tag used (the i tag), so we tried using a div instead (<div class="fa-light fa-envelope"></div>). This div is not stripped from the HTML but the icon is not rendered.

Please allow inserting icons in the Editor content.

The Editor currently supports only numeric ordered list. I'm looking for an option to add different types of ordered lists - roman and alphabetical.

Please add support for these types of ordered lists similiar to the KendoReact Editor.

I would like to use the Editor in a more compact matter in my application. The buttons and button groups must be small, and the margins and the paddings must be smaller as well. 

The overall goal is to make the Editor take less amount of space in the UI. 

I have the following command

await _editorRef.ExecuteAsync(new HtmlCommandArgs("insertHtml", "<hr class='donotremove' />", false));

Currently, the <hr/> element is added but its class is stripped. This is not the case with other elements. 

Reproduction: https://blazorrepl.telerik.com/GRYyGUbH492QNMki44.

Please allow adding class to <hr/> elements, too.

Currently, our Editor component does not support a placeholder parameter. Having a placeholder parameter, similar to the Kendo UI Editor, would prove to be beneficial.

It seems that texts/options in the Format tool dropdown are not part of the localization (Paragraph, Heading 1..6).

Editor demo

Hello,

We are adding references to other documents via a drag an drop over the text as a superscript hyperlinks. Our users are complaining that when we drag and drop onto the Blazor editor control, it is hard to see exactly where the drop is going to be.

The Kendo UI Editor supports this.

Please add built-in toolbar tools (buttons) for Cut, Copy and Paste.

The request from our customer is to have similar behavior as typical toolbars in most applications where there is a cut and paste along with the regular keyboard shortcuts.

As the toolbar options typically show the options that are available then one might presume that because cut and paste icons are not present then such a shortcut might not be available either.

In Editors that use the ProseMirror engine (including non-Telerik), when you click Enter twice in the middle of formatted text and go back (with an up arrow) to write, the new text format is back to default.

This enhancement will allow you to keep the text format after pressing Enter and creating new block elements.

Hello,

Please allow standard form elements in the Editor content:

• <button> tags
• <input> tags (textboxes, checkboxes, buttons, radio buttons)
• <textarea> tags

I couldn't find the Preview Tool button in the Editor.

Please help me with that, how can I add that functionality into the Editor?

I need help to format/pretty HTML code in the viewhtml dialog box in the Editor. Plus, I couldn't find any property on the ViewHtml class that allows setting the content when the dialog box is open.

See Blazor ViewHtml dialog formatting.

See Kendo ViewHtml dialog formatting.

Hi,

I tried looking through the docs and api reference for the Blazor Editor, but I can't seem to find any resizable property like the one found in the ASP.NET Core component here: ASP.NET Core Editor - Api Reference | Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core

I just wanted to check that this feature is not included in the editor for Blazor before I submitted a feature request. I tried to search the requests as well and I didn't see this request listed. 

If this feature does not exist, do you know if it is being currently considered for a future release or if there is a workaround?

Thank you,

Frank
