Working with RichTextBox for Windows Phone

The most complete rich text editor available for Windows Phone, load, edit, and save formatted text as HTML or RTF documents with ComponentOne RichTextBox™ for Windows Phone. The C1RichTextBox control provides rich formatting, automatic line wrapping, HTML and RTF import/export, table support, images, annotations, and more.

The C1.Phone.RichTextBox assembly contains two main objects: the C1RichTextBox control and the C1Document object.

C1RichTextBox is a powerful text editor that allows you to display and edit formatted text. C1RichTextBox supports all the usual formatting options, including fonts, background and foreground colors, lists, hyperlinks, images, borders, and so on. C1RichTextBox also supports loading and saving documents in HTML format.

C1Document is the class that represents the contents of a C1RichTextBox. It is analogous to the FlowDocument class in WPF. As in WPF, a C1Document is composed of stacked elements (C1Block objects) which in turn are composed of inline elements (C1Run objects).

Many applications may deal only with the C1RichTextBox control, which provides a simple linear view of the document. Other applications may choose to use the rich object model provided by the C1Documentclass to create and manage documents directly, with full access to the document structure.
