the Cute editor flickering in a modalpopup extender.. how can I solve this?

Reply Quote

I love this Cue editor. I think it is the best thing in the world.

However I am having al little problem:

I have a CuteEditor inside a usercontrol inside a ModalPopupExtender control. the user control needs some properties set before it is displayed by the Modalpopup popping up. So from my main page I call a method on the usercontrol that invokes the Databind method of a datasource control. The CuteEditor is in NO way databound.

So, I first call the method on the usercontrol (which is hidden), this binds my data on the usercontrol, then I call the Modalpopup.Show() method

The problem is that this creates a fliker on the page . Not necessarly where the modalpopup will appear. This flicker also appears when I hide the Modalpopup.

Finaly: This oinly happens when I have a CuteEditor on the user control. The moment i delete the Cuteeditor the problem disapears all together.

Is ther a solution or workaround?

bcweed,

Can you set Editor.UseStandardDialog property to true and try the standard dialog?

How to Choose the Dialog System of Cute Editor?

Cute Editor has two built-in dialog systems.

Vista Style Dialog
Standard Dialog

By default, when a user opens a dialogs of Cute Editor, the Vista Style Dialog will appear by default. If you want to use the Standard Dialog in your environments, you need to set Editor.UseStandardDialog property to true.

Vista Style Dialog:

Standard Dialog:

yes exactly. I had thought about doing that all weekend long and in the process of doing this I found out the problem using fiddler.

It was unrelated to the cute editor. it was an update panel that was setup to always update and so it was updating in the background and thats what was causing the flicker

thank you anyways for you time.

I like your product :)

I have now finally pinpointed the problem exactly:

you can test this by going there: http://www.weedbook.ca/default18.aspx

the thing is, the cute editor works fine inside the ajax modalpopupextender control until the page is scrolled even just a little bit. Then I get the whole flickering which is actualy a flashing of the top of the page since it has been moved upwards by scrolling the page down.

lets try to find a solution to this

I am sorry I am reading your last post late and am glad that you are interested. Thank you

I had not realized that the demo page was not working so I corrected it now.

It is at its simplest in every way

Hi,

Now we consider that the Editor script get error in that condition.

We need test more and find the deep reason.

I think this issue is resolved in version 6.4.

Which version of Cute Editor are you using?
