Connecting a C1RichTextBoxToolbar to a C1RichTextBox

To connect a C1RichTextBoxToolbar control to a C1RichTextBox control you would need to set the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property to the name of the control you want to link with the toolbar. You can connect a C1RichTextBoxToolbar control to a C1RichTextBox control at design time, in XAML, and in code.

At Design Time

To set the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property in Microsoft Expression Blend, complete the following steps:

1. Click the C1RichTextBox control once to select it.
2. Navigate to the Properties window, and click the Advanced Options button next to the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property.
3. In the Create Data Binding dialog box, click the Element Property tab.
4. In the Element Property tab, select the C1RichTextBox1 item and click OK.

This will set the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property to C1RichTextBox1.

In XAML

For example, to set the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property addRichTextBox="" to the c1rtb:C1RichTextBox tag so that it appears similar to the following:

<c1rtb:C1RichTextBox HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10,10,0,0" Name="C1RichTextBox1" VerticalAlignment="Top" c1:C1NagScreen.Nag="True" Height="83" Width="208" RichTextBox="" />

In Code

For example, to set the C1RichTextBoxToolbar.RichTextBox property add the following code to your project:

Me.C1RichTextBoxToolbar1.RichTextBox = C1RichTextBox1

this.c1RichTextBoxToolbar1.RichTextBox = c1RichTextBox1;

What You've Accomplished

You've linked a C1RichTextBoxToolbar to a C1RichTextBox control. Now when you type text in the C1RichTextBox, for example, change the content appearance, for example, the font. For more information about the C1RichTextBox control, see the Working with C1RichTextBoxToolbar topics.
