Hi,

I'm creating some custom functionality for one of out customers, where I use the dw:Editor user control. Is there any way I can change the Editor Configuration for that control?

It doesn't look like theres anything to do on the editor object, but i found a "EditorConfiguration" class - can I use this to create a new EditorConfiguration based on an editor configuration I've created in the management center - and then apply that to the editor user control. 

 

Thanks in advance

// René

Hi René

Sorry for the late answer. The dw.editor control has a toolbar attribute which you can set to the name of a configuration.

Hi Nicolai,

Thats ok ;-) But I can't make it work like its supposed to. I've made an editor configuration called "intranet_net4u_v1", whit the following settings:

I've set together some screenshots showing my editor configuration, how the editor actually looks and how i set the Toolbar attribute. As you can see, some of the things I allow in the editor is not allowed (and the other way around). Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Rene

 

OK, looked a little deeper.

Editor configurations are attached to a user, and when that user logs in, they will be shown that toolbar.

 

The Toolbar attribute is setting which built-in editor toolbar to show. Default is "DwCustomConfig" meaning using the above user defined toolbar.

 

So you can use one of these built in toolbars in stead:

"Default", "FrontendEdit", "DwFrontendEditing", "DwStructure", "DWBasic", "DWAdvanced", "DwForum", "DwForumExtended", "DwItem", "DwForumStylish".

 

A weird list, but will give you different configurations. Maybe one you can use. Apart from that you do not have any options to change it.

Hi Nicolai,

I've tried several of these but it doesn't seem to make any difference. The editor looks the same no matter which of the above I use.

I've tried to set it in the HTML where I insert the usercontrol, but also in the code behind in the page load event.

Hi Rene,

Did you try this with the ForceNew property set to true?
