How to use Xamarin.Forms RichTextEditor Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS platforms?
You can convert the SfRichTextEditor from Xamarin.Forms into Xamarin Android and Xamarin iOS.
For Android you need to convert the main page in to fragment and replace it in the OnCreate method of MainActivity.cs file
C#
public class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity
{
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
Forms.Init(this, savedInstanceState);
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.activity_main);
var mainPage = new SfRTE().CreateSupportFragment(this);
SupportFragmentManager
.BeginTransaction()
.Replace(Resource.Id.fragment_frame_layout, mainPage)
.Commit();
}
}
For iOS you need to create the instance for the window and set the main page as rootview in the FinishedLaunching method of AppDelegate.cs file.
public override bool FinishedLaunching(UIApplication application, NSDictionary launchOptions)
{
Forms.Init();
// create a new window instance based on the screen size
Window = new UIWindow(UIScreen.MainScreen.Bounds);
Syncfusion.XForms.iOS.RichTextEditor.SfRichTextEditorRenderer.Init();
var mainPage = new SfRTE().CreateViewController();
// If you have defined a root view controller, set it here:
Window.RootViewController = mainPage;
// make the window visible
Window.MakeKeyAndVisible();
return true;
}
