NullReferenceException is thrown when some of the parts in the template of SelectionMiniToolBar are missing, e.g. bold button, italic button, etc.; and selected text properties are changed while the selection mini tool bar is still opened, for example by clicking buttons in the ribbon UI.

Available in LIB Version 2017.3.1225.

In MS Word, the users can change the alignment of a table using the buttons related to Paragraph alignment. To do that, the whole table must be selected.

In RadRichTextBox, selecting a Table and pressing one of the buttons, let say for Right alignment, leads to aligning the content of the table and not the table itself.

Workaround:
private void RadRichTextBox_CommandExecuting(object sender, CommandExecutingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Command is ChangeTextAlignmentCommand &&
        this.radRichTextBox.Document.Selection.Ranges.Count == 1 &&
        this.radRichTextBox.Document.Selection.Ranges.First.RangeType == SelectionRangeType.Table &&
        e.CommandParameter.ToString() != "Justify")
    {
        e.Cancel = true;

        RadDocumentEditor editor = new RadDocumentEditor(this.radRichTextBox.Document);
        RadHorizontalAlignment newAlignment = (RadHorizontalAlignment) Enum.Parse(typeof(RadHorizontalAlignment), e.CommandParameter.ToString());
        editor.ChangeTableHorizontalAlignment(newAlignment);
    }
}

NOTE: With this approach, the toggle buttons in the UI are not updated properly and this should be additionally handled.

Tapping on a selected region in a document should show the selection mini toolbar. A second tap should clear the selection and then place the cursor on the tapped location, but this does not happen. Subsequent tap should select the entire word and another tap should select the paragraph.

When applying a table style, the previously applied local properties to a table or cell should be cleared and the ones defined by the style should be used.

Workaround: Create a new Table and apply the style to it; then copy the properties to the existing table in the document

private void RadRichTextBox_CommandExecuting(object sender, CommandExecutingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Command is ChangeStyleNameCommand && this.radRichTextBox.Document.CaretPosition.IsPositionInsideTable)
    {
        StyleDefinition style = this.radRichTextBox.Document.StyleRepository.GetValueOrNull(e.CommandParameter.ToString());
        if (style.Type == StyleType.Table)
        {
            Table currentTable = this.radRichTextBox.Document.CaretPosition.GetCurrentTableBox().AssociatedTable;
            currentTable.Borders = new TableBorders(style.TableProperties.Borders);

            Table tableWithStyle = new Table(currentTable.Rows.Count, currentTable.Rows.First.Cells.Count);
            tableWithStyle.Style = this.radRichTextBox.Document.StyleRepository.GetValueOrNull(e.CommandParameter.ToString());

            for (int rowIndex = 0; rowIndex < currentTable.Rows.Count; rowIndex++)
            {
                for (int columnIndex = 0; columnIndex < currentTable.Rows.First.Cells.Count; columnIndex++)
                {
                    TableCell cell = currentTable.Rows.Skip(rowIndex).First().Cells.Skip(columnIndex).First();
                    TableCell cellWithStyle = tableWithStyle.Rows.Skip(rowIndex).First().Cells.Skip(columnIndex).First();

                    cell.Background = cellWithStyle.Background;
                    cell.Borders = cellWithStyle.Borders;
                }
            }

            this.radRichTextBox.UpdateEditorLayout();
            e.Cancel = true;
        }
    }
}

NullReferenceException is thrown when documents are exported to PDF using PdfFormatProvider in multiple threads.

Available in R1 2018 Official Release Version.

The \sl (line spacing) RTF tag is supposed to be accompanied by a number indicating the value of the line spacing. According to the RTF specification: 

Space between lines. If this control word is missing or if \sl0 is used, the line spacing is automatically determined by the tallest character in the line. If N is a positive value, this size is used only if it is taller than the tallest character (otherwise, the tallest character is used); if N is a negative value, the absolute value of N is used, even if it is shorter than the tallest character. 


However, there are documents where the number is missing at all and MS Word interprets those as if the value is 0. RadRichTextBox visualizes these with lines of size close to zero which makes them invisible. Although this case is not mentioned in the specification, we can consider fixing it.

When cross-reference is added in the header/footer of a document in does not show the available options from the document.

When an element refers to a style name of a style that is not present in the document, trying to export it with RtfFormatProvider leads to KeyNotFoundException. A similar document could be produced when copying content from MS Word.

The same case is working properly with the other providers as well as in WordsProcessing (check the related 133762).

Workaround: Check all the styles used in the document and remove the NextStyleName or LinkedStyle values that point to non-existing in the document styles.

Pressing Delete at the end of a paragraph leads to merging the content of the current paragraph with the next block. However, when the deleted paragraph contains a single space, the layout stops updating after pressing Delete.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create two tables with paragraph between them

2. Add a space to the paragraph

3. Press Delete (when the caret is just after the space)

Observed: The layout is not updated after this and further modifications


Workaround: 
Delete the space before deleting the paragraph:

private void RadRichTextBox_CommandExecuting(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Documents.RichTextBoxCommands.CommandExecutingEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Command is DeleteCommand && this.radRichTextBox.Document.Selection.IsEmpty)
    {
        Paragraph currentParagraph = this.radRichTextBox.Document.CaretPosition.GetCurrentParagraphBox().AssociatedParagraph;
        if (currentParagraph.Inlines.Count==1 && string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace((currentParagraph.Inlines.First as Span).Text))
        {
            this.radRichTextBox.Delete(true);
        }
    }
}

Currently, the underline is always exported as single. Add support for the other types that can be used in RadRichTextBox.

When the width of the tab stop is set to a negative value, an ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown on import. Other applications handle this case and convert the value to a positive number.

Fix is available in LIB Version 2018.1.326.

A specific combination of document elements causes an infinite measure loop.

An additional line should be inserted between the inner div and the span where the first <br> is inserted.

Add support for FILENAME field. The field could be evaluated using the last opened/saved file name.

When a table in HTML document has width set to 0 (through an attribute or CSS style),  the table is imported with 0 width in the document model. This makes the content unreadable. 

Instead, such width should be treated as if width is not set at all - this way the layout will use only the widths set to the cells.

Workaround: Clear the PreferredWidth property if it is 0.
var tables = this.radRichTextBox.Document.EnumerateChildrenOfType<Table>();
foreach (var table in tables)
{
    if (table.PreferredWidth.Value == 0)
    {
        table.PreferredWidth = null;
    }
}

Font weight, size and other current editing style properties are not preserved when Shift + Enter key combination is used and the user continues typing.

Note: this is true not only for font weight but for other styling properties such as size, italic etc.

The customers need to customize the dialogs for opening and saving a file. For example, they need to set a default path or extension. With the current implementation, this can be achieved by customizing the commands. Expose an API allowing them to achieve that easily.

When the background is defined for a table or a cell, it should be inherited by the paragraphs inside. Currently, the paragraphs are with the background defined in the default style.
