How to use the rmlui rich text editor? Is there a suitable approach?

[zsea]

I want to implement a rich text editor. I know that in a browser, we can use contentEditable to enable the editing state of an element, but there is no such attribute in rmlui. Is there any other way to achieve this?

Hi. Sure, this will certainly be quite some effort, but the only proper way to implement rich text editing would be to create a custom element. I'd encourage you to take a look at the WidgetTextInput class, and work your way out from there. Let me know if I can answer any questions.

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
