Richtextbox

Rich text boxes enable the user to enter and edit formatted text at runtime. Thus, the user can benefit from all format options that have been provided by Microsoft for the corresponding text entry fields. Similar to a mini-word processor, users can apply simple formatting to the text as well as paste graphics, tables, photos and other objects simply by using copy & paste. Images can also be inserted via the button Docusnap-Editor-Rich-Text-Image, this button is activated at the Richtextbox. Elements copied from another applications (or other parts of Docusnap) can be pasted at the current cursor position by pressing the <Ctrl>+<V> hotkey or by clicking the corresponding button on the toolbar, provided that this functionality is supported by the rich text box. Thus, rich text boxes are particularly suitable to enter comprehensive passages of text such as notes, comments, or they can simply be used as a means to enter formatted text.
