Font fore color and background color toolbar buttons not working?

    Font fore color and background color toolbar buttons not working?

    Reply Quote
    We have a page that uses the cutesoft editor.  It is using the "Minimal" toolbar, with the font forecolor and background color toolbar buttons added.

     
    When we try to use the toolbar, the bold, italics, underline and the alignment (left, center, right, justify) buttons work, but the font forecolor and background color do not - the text remains unchanged.
     
    We note that we are currently using the 5.1 version of the cutesoft editor, and that this only appears to be an issue when the page also has a telerik tab strip control (the editor is under one of the tabs).  We have tried putting the editor "outside" the tab page but the issue remains.
     
    Do you know if there is a way around this, or if upgrading the cutesoft editor to the latest version fixes the issue?
     
    Thanks

    I suggest you updated to the latest version of cute editor.
     
     
    The upgrade is free. Your official license file will also work for this version.
     
    In version 5.1, the color picker of Cute Editor IE implementation uses the browser built-in function. The 
    telerik  control also uses the same function but different name. I think it may cause the script conflicts.
     
    Keep me posted

    Thanks Adam.
     
    We also did a bit more testing and it appears that setting the readonly property for the editor this issue then occurs.
     
    We start the editor as readonly = true.  After a person clicks on "Edit" the readonly is then set to false.  Then the issue occurs.  If we comment out any lines that set the readonly property, then the fore color/background color tool bar button works.

    Hi Adam,
     
    We have now updated to the latest version we have (6.6c) and note that the issue still persists.
     
    As noted in my previous post, this is fine if we don't use the readonly property, but causes an issue if we do use it.
     
    As an aside, setting the control to enabled = false still allows us to modify the text in the editor

    Hi Adam,
     
    We have just downloaded the latest version of 6.6 (which we are dubbing 6.6d - forgive the confusion as I did not know the c from my previous post was an internal designation).
     
    In any case, the latest downloaded version still has the problem.

    We found some more information. 
     
    If we click on the actual toolbar button itself, the colors are not applied (blue arrows).
     
    But if we click on the little "down" arrow beside the button and select a color from the pallete, then the color is applied (black arrows).
     
     
     
    As noted before, this is only an issue if the readonly property was set and if a telerik tab strip control is used (we also found the issue on one of our other projects which wasn't noticed before)

    We managed to find a work around that gets the functionality we need and the toolbar buttons for the font forecolor and background color still work.
     
    Instead of setting the readonly and enabled properties of the editor, we set the active tab to "view" or "edit" instead.
