Keyboard commands are not working for controls inside the InlineUIContainer. The reason for this is that RichTextBox is handling them.
The commands are: Left, Right, Backspace, Delete, Tab, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V among others.

Workaround:
Attach custom event handler to the PreviewEditorKeyDown event of the RichTextBox. This event should set "e.SuppressDefaultAction = true" when the focus is in the InineUIContainer.

When a DropDownList SDT form is saved in a XAML document and then imported with the XamlFormatProvider, an extra ListItem entry is added in the items collection of the DropDownList. The extra entry is the default "Choose an item".

To work this around, iterate all ComboBoxProperties and manually remove duplicates of the "Choose an item" entry.

var dropDownLists = radRichTextBox.Document.EnumerateChildrenOfType<SdtRangeStart>()
     .Where(x => x.SdtProperties is ComboBoxProperties)
     .Select(x => x.SdtProperties).OfType<ComboBoxProperties>();
 var defaultItemString = LocalizationManager.GetString("Documents_ContentControlsGenerator_ListItem");
 foreach (var item in dropDownLists)
 {
     if (item.Items.Count > 0 && item.Items.Any(x => x.Value != defaultItemString) && item.Items.Any(x => x.Value == defaultItemString))
     {
         var occurrence = item.Items.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Value == defaultItemString);
         while (occurrence != null)
         {
             item.Items.Remove(occurrence);
             occurrence = item.Items.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Value == defaultItemString);
         }

Release 2026.1.211 (2026 Q1)

FormatException is thrown during the import of a table coming from a docx document when the application culture is "sv-SE". This happens when the column width in the document is a floating point number (ex: 120.65). The Swedish culture uses "," as decimal separator and " " as the number group separator, which makes any invariant decimal value (like 120.65) invalid during standard parsing (ex: float.Parse("120.65")).

Stacktrace:

FormatException: The input string '4514.5' was not in the correct format.

Font weight, size and other current editing style properties are not preserved when document layout is performed, for example in the following cases:
- the document is in web layout mode and the controls is resized
- scroll bar changes its visibility.

Steps to reproduce:
- Set RadRichTextBox to Web layout mode.
- Type a word, select it and make it bold.
- Press enter and type a word
- Repeat the previous step until RadRichTextBox height is reached and scrollbar appear.
- Type a word.
Expected: The last word is bold.
Actual: The last word is not bold.

The RichTextBox internal logic that imports .docx documents (DocxFormatProvider) doesn't support elements that don't need direct content, but have both start and end tags. Instead such elements should use self-closing tags. 

For example, instead of <w:vertAlign w:val="baseline"></w:vertAlign> it should be <w:vertAlign w:val="baseline"/>

When such element is read during import, issues may occur. Two main known issues here are with the w:vertAlign and Relationship tags.

Using

<w:vertAlign w:val="baseline"></w:vertAlign> 

instead of

<w:vertAlign w:val="baseline"/> 

throws NullReferenceException with the following stack trace:

To work this around, import the document with the WordsProcessing library. If you need to display it in RadRichTextBox, you can export it again using the WordsProcessing library. This will normalize the tags. Then import it again using the RadDocument's DocxFormatProvider.

 var dplDocxFormatProvider = new Telerik.Windows.Documents.Flow.FormatProviders.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
 RadFlowDocument flowDocument = dplDocxFormatProvider.Import(File.ReadAllBytes("../../../test.docx"), null);

 var docBytes = dplDocxFormatProvider.Export(flowDocument, null);
 File.WriteAllBytes("../../../modified-doc.docx", docBytes);

 var rtbDocxFormatProvider= new Telerik.Windows.Documents.FormatProviders.OpenXml.Docx.DocxFormatProvider();
 RadDocument document = rtbDocxFormatProvider.Import(File.ReadAllBytes("../../../modified-doc.docx"));

Exporting RadDocument to docx format (using the DocxFormatProvider) produces an invalid file. The file is read properly by document viewers like RadRichTextBox or MS Word, but if you open it with "Open XML SDK Productivity Tool for Microsoft Office" or another app that validates documents, the document is treated as invalid.

To work this around, you can import the invalid .docx document using the RadWordsProcessing library (and its RadFlowDocument) and then export it again with RadWordsProcessing.

The operating system region and language needs to be set to Japanese.

RichTextBox seems to have several issues with Japanese, but being locked from visibility or edit is the biggest one.

To recreate, start typing in Japanese, push the "right" arrow after selecting the IME option desired, then hit "spacebar." This seems to duplicate the text, then when trying to continue to type into the text field the text is no longer visible (yet the IME does display).

The native WPF RichTextBox has no issues (and also supports partial selection, etc.).

I've attached a video to show the behavior with 2025 Q1 telerik.

*note:* This is on a machine with NVIDIA graphics. I mention this as there may be some issues with RichTextBox and the hardware... When I'm in a virtual machine with a completely Japanese environment and virtual graphics driver, there is NO text visible at all when trying to type into the RichTextBox. Works fine with other controls and wpf RichTextBox.
