RichTextEditor: The control does not work with the Telerik UI for Xamarin Lite assemblies

Although RichTextEditor does not rely on SkiaSharp library, NullReferenceException is thrown when you reference Telerik UI for Xamarin Lite assemblies and add RichTextEditor with a predefined source to the page.

Hello,

The reason why SkiaSharp is required when using RTE with Lite assemblies is the fact that RTE uses BusyIndicator. The indicator is visualized when loading HTML.

Workaround

Set different control inside the RadRichTextEditor.BusyIndicatorTemplate, for example Label:

<telerikRichTextEditor:RadRichTextEditor>
    <telerikRichTextEditor:RadRichTextEditor.BusyIndicatorTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Label Text="loading data" TextColor="Red" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </telerikRichTextEditor:RadRichTextEditor.BusyIndicatorTemplate>
</telerikRichTextEditor:RadRichTextEditor>

Regards,
