7 Jun 2017 / 1 minute to read

RTE provides find and replace support, which is used to search for a keyword in RTE content and replace the matched keyword with a specified text. In order to use it, we have to enable the find and replace item in the editor toolbar (or) Press CTRL+F key.

html

<textarea id="texteditor" ej-rte [(tools)]="tools"></textarea>

html

import {Component} from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'sd-home',
  templateUrl: 'app/components/rte/rte.component.html'
})
export class RTEComponent {
    tools: Object;
    constructor() {
        this.tools = { edit: ["findAndReplace"] };
    }     
}

• Find and Replace action should happen in a following sequence:

  Find => Replace (or) Replace All.

Action	Descriptions
