Currently, the scrollbars width is calculated only according to SystemInformation.VerticalScrollBarWidth. Workaround: class MyRTE : RadRichTextEditor { protected override void CreateChildItems(RadElement parent) { var rte = new MyRTEElement(); typeof(RadRichTextEditor).GetField("richTextBox", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance).SetValue(this, rte); parent.Children.Add(rte); } } public class MyRTEElement : RadRichTextBox { protected override SizeF ArrangeOverride(SizeF finalSize) { base.ArrangeOverride(finalSize); System.Drawing.RectangleF finalRect = new System.Drawing.RectangleF(System.Drawing.PointF.Empty, finalSize); System.Drawing.RectangleF clientRect = finalRect; System.Drawing.RectangleF horizontalScrollRect = System.Drawing.RectangleF.Empty; System.Drawing.RectangleF verticalScrollRect = System.Drawing.RectangleF.Empty; System.Drawing.RectangleF presenterArea = clientRect; if (this.VerticalScrollBar.Visibility != Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed) { verticalScrollRect = new System.Drawing.RectangleF( new System.Drawing.PointF(finalRect.Right - this.VerticalScrollBar.Size.Width, finalRect.Top), new System.Drawing.SizeF(this.VerticalScrollBar.Size.Width, finalRect.Height)); } if (this.HorizontalScrollBar.Visibility != Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed) { horizontalScrollRect = new System.Drawing.RectangleF( new System.Drawing.PointF(finalRect.Left, finalRect.Bottom - this.HorizontalScrollBar.Size.Height), new System.Drawing.SizeF(finalRect.Width, this.HorizontalScrollBar.Size.Height)); if (this.VerticalScrollBar.Visibility != Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed) { horizontalScrollRect.Width -= this.VerticalScrollBar.Size.Width; verticalScrollRect.Height -= this.HorizontalScrollBar.Size.Height; } } presenterArea.Width -= verticalScrollRect.Width; presenterArea.Height -= horizontalScrollRect.Height; if (this.RightToLeft) { horizontalScrollRect = Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.LayoutUtils.RTLTranslateNonRelative(horizontalScrollRect, clientRect); verticalScrollRect = Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.LayoutUtils.RTLTranslateNonRelative(verticalScrollRect, clientRect); presenterArea = Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.LayoutUtils.RTLTranslateNonRelative(presenterArea, clientRect); } this.VerticalScrollBar.Arrange(verticalScrollRect); this.HorizontalScrollBar.Arrange(horizontalScrollRect); var contentPresenter = typeof(RadRichTextBox).GetField("contentPresenter", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this) as ContentControl; contentPresenter.Arrange(presenterArea); return finalSize; } protected override SizeF MeasureOverride(SizeF availableSize) { base.MeasureOverride(availableSize); System.Drawing.SizeF horizontalScrollSize = System.Drawing.SizeF.Empty; System.Drawing.SizeF verticalScrollSize = System.Drawing.SizeF.Empty; System.Drawing.SizeF presenterSize = availableSize; if (this.VerticalScrollBar.Visibility != Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed) { verticalScrollSize = new System.Drawing.SizeF(this.VerticalScrollBar.Size.Width, availableSize.Height); } if (this.HorizontalScrollBar.Visibility != Telerik.WinControls.ElementVisibility.Collapsed) { horizontalScrollSize = new System.Drawing.SizeF(availableSize.Width, this.HorizontalScrollBar.Size.Height); } presenterSize.Width -= verticalScrollSize.Width; presenterSize.Height -= horizontalScrollSize.Height; //presenterSize = base.GetClientRectangle(presenterSize).Size; this.VerticalScrollBar.Measure(verticalScrollSize); this.HorizontalScrollBar.Measure(horizontalScrollSize); var contentPresenter = typeof(RadRichTextBox).GetField("contentPresenter", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetValue(this) as ContentControl; contentPresenter.Measure(presenterSize); return availableSize; } }
