Use the hotkey for maximizing editor in read only mode

Reply Quote

Hi,

My application uses the cute editor on a page in read only mode so that users can actually type in values into the form elements like text boxes, radio buttons etc much like they were using a regular web form. In order to do this I set the following code

this.FormEditor.ShowPreviewMode = true;

this.FormEditor.ShowToolBar = false;

this.FormEditor.ActiveTab =CuteEditor.TabType.View;

this.FormEditor.ShowBottomBar= false;

My clients want to be able to maximise and minimise the editor in this mode. Is it possible or do I need to display the toolbar to do it.

Thanks

Amrita

Adam,

The editor is being viewed in the "View" tab type, the top and bottom toolbars are turned off. I cant get F12 to work unless I turn on the toolbar, and this pagecant show the toolbar. So thats the problem. Is there something I can do in the stylesheet to just hide the toolbar even if from the editor's perspective, it is turned on so F12 works.

Amrita,

Open the Themes/Custom/style.css.aspx file and find the following code:

<%=editorid%> .CuteEditorToolbar {}

Change it to:

<%=editorid%> .CuteEditorToolbar {display:hidden;}

Adam,

Just because of the way I want users to use the "web form" created for use with the Cute editor, I need to display it in Preview mode using the following code

this.FormEditor.ActiveTab =CuteEditor.TabType.View;

this.FormEditor.ShowPreviewMode = true

I want the users to enter data and such on the form but not modify the controls i.e. not have access to any of the editorial functions. Looks like the toolbar and the F12 function only works in normal mode. I need it to work in preview mode first and then hide it using your stylesheet suggestion. How can I make that happen?
