Inline mode in EJ2 JavaScript Rich text editor control

18 Apr 20233 minutes to read

This is the inline example for the Rich Text Editor. For this you must set the inlineMode property.

Inline edition allows you to select any editable element or click the element on the page and edit it in-place.

Inline editing is a true WYSIWYG formation and on the contrary to Rich Text Editor HTML/MD editing, the styles that are used for edited content comes directly from the document stylesheet. This means that inline editors ignore the default Rich Text Editor content styles.

Show on select/click

Enabling the onSelection option of inlineMode makes the inline Rich Text Editor to appear. You can select the text in the editable area otherwise the inline Rich Text Editor will be appear once click into the editable area.

/**

var defaultRTE = new ej.richtexteditor.RichTextEditor({
	inlineMode: {
		enable: true,
		onSelection: true
	}
});
defaultRTE.appendTo('#defaultRTE');
