How to reproduce: simply configure Polish keyboard and press [ALT GR] + [C], the added text is "©ć". The expected behavior would be to only add "ć" Workaround: Handle the CommandExecuting event: private void RadRichTextEditor1_CommandExecuting(object sender, Telerik.WinForms.Documents.RichTextBoxCommands.CommandExecutingEventArgs e) { if (e.Command is InsertTextCommand && e.CommandParameter.ToString() == "©") { e.Cancel = true; } }
