public class RichEditSettings :

Remarks

To declare the RichEdit in a View, invoke the ExtensionsFactory.RichEdit helper method. This method returns the RichEdit extension that is implemented by the RichEditExtension class.

To configure the RichEdit extension, pass the RichEditSettings object to the ExtensionsFactory.RichEdit helper method as a parameter. The RichEditSettings object contains all the RichEdit extension settings.

The example below demonstrates how to prevent users from loading documents in a format other than DOCX:

@Html.DevExpress().RichEdit(settings => {
    settings.Name = "RichEdit";
    settings.CallbackRouteValues = new { Controller = "Home", Action = "RichEditPartial" };
    settings.WorkDirectory = @"~\App_Data\WorkDirectory\";  
    settings.SettingsDocumentSelector.UploadSettings.Enabled = true;
    settings.SettingsDocumentSelector.CommonSettings.AllowedFileExtensions = new String[] {".docx"};
    settings.SettingsDocumentSelector.UploadSettings.ValidationSettings.NotAllowedFileExtensionErrorText = "This file extention isn't allowed.";
}).GetHtml()
