XMLFoldingTagger is not documented. Neither here: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/syntax-editor/features/taggers/overview nor here: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/syntax-editor/features/taggers/folding-taggers.
The component itself seems to work fine with DPI scaling except for the search/find functionality. When you search for some text and click to go to the first instance it finds, the actual text is off-screen, though it is highlighted correctly (when you scroll down you can see it highlighted).
This is easy to replicate by changing the Windows display scale to anything other than 100%.
This is an odd one - see attached GIF.
If I attempt to select characters with the mouse (left-click + drag), at the beginning of any line of text, it won't highlight (90+% of the time). That's if I'm dragging from left-to-right.
If I select the same text from right-to-left, it works every time.
Setting the SyntaxEditorElement.IsReadOnly property to true disables editing the text inside RadSyntaxEditor. However, when opening the Find and Replace dialog, the user is still allowed to replace the text and thus change the content in the document. This shouldn't be allowed when the control is in read-only mode.
Workaround:
this.radSyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.InputHandler = new MyInputBehavior(this.radSyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement); public class MyInputBehavior : SyntaxEditorInputBehavior { public MyInputBehavior(RadSyntaxEditorElement editor) : base(editor) { } protected override void PerformOpenFileDialog(KeyEventArgs e) { this.SyntaxEditor.SearchPanel.ReplaceAllButton.Enabled = false; this.SyntaxEditor.SearchPanel.ReplaceButton.Enabled = false; this.SyntaxEditor.SearchPanel.ReplaceTextBox.Enabled = false; base.PerformOpenFileDialog(e); } }
When I setup and OverloadList, the OverloadListWindow follows the cursor and can move off screen so the user can't see/read the information that is presented.
Workaround: adjust the position of the overload window when it is shown:
this.radSyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.IntelliPrompts.OverloadListWindow.VisibleChanged+=OverloadListWindow_VisibleChanged;
private void OverloadListWindow_VisibleChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ShapedForm f = sender as ShapedForm;
Screen myScreen = Screen.FromControl(this);
Rectangle area = myScreen.WorkingArea;
if (f.Left + f.Width > area.Width)
{
f.Left = area.Width - f.Width -5;
}
}
Change the NumbersColor at design time:
Run the application:
Workaround: move this code in the Form.Load event
If my xml string contains an element with attributes, XMLFoldingTagger just ignores it!
For example:
<Formular DebugMode="F" Version="1" Typ="Rechnung">
<OtherElements/>
<Formular/>
is ignored. Element Formular is not recognized by the XMLFoldingTagger. Only simple elements are recognized, like:
<Formular>
<OtherElements/>
<Formular/>
RadSyntaxEditorElement offers the following method: public CaretPosition GetPositionFromPoint(System.Drawing.Point point)
However, it doesn't return the correct CaretPosition as it requires to transform the System.Drawing.Point first:
private void MySyntaxEditor1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
CaretPosition pos = mySyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.GetPositionFromPoint(GetPosition(e, mySyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.EditorPresenter));
CaretPosition start = new CaretPosition(pos);
start.MoveToCurrentWordStart();
CaretPosition end = new CaretPosition(pos);
end.MoveToCurrentWordEnd();
mySyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.Selection.Select(start, end);
}
public Telerik.WinControls.SyntaxEditor.UI.Point GetPosition(System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs args, Telerik.WinControls.SyntaxEditor.UI.UIElement element)
{
System.Drawing.Point screenLocation = mySyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.PointToScreen(args.Location);
System.Drawing.Point point = element.PointFromScreen(screenLocation);
Telerik.WinControls.Layouts.RadMatrix matrix = element.TotalTransform;
matrix.Invert();
return new System.Drawing.PointF(point.X * matrix.ScaleX, point.Y * matrix.ScaleY);
}
Please refer to the attached gif file.
Workaround: set bottom padding by setting the SyntaxEditorElement.HorizontalScrollBar.Padding property.
mySyntaxEditor1.SyntaxEditorElement.HorizontalScrollBar.Padding = new Padding(0, 0, 0, 2);
XmlFoldingTagger throws while entering XML. When closing the root tag on the next line, the Tagger throws once you enter the '/' (before.png -> after.png).
Adding a second opening tag and converting it to closing by inserting the '/' afterwards works.
When adding a child tag, the tagger offers to fold the unfinished tag against the root closing tag, and throws if you try to do so.
