Fields.CreateAsync(Int32, Int32) Method
Creates a field in an interval. The interval is specified with the startPosition
and length
parameters.
Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit
Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit.v24.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit
#Declaration
#Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
start |
Int32 | The interval’s start position. |
length | Int32 | The interval’s length. |
#Returns
Type | Description |
---|---|
Value |
A structure that stores an awaitable result of an asynchronous operation. The awaitable result is a field object. |
#Remarks
The startPosition
and the length
parameters specify an interval in a sub-document. Call the CreateAsync(Int32, Int32)
method to wrap the specified interval in a new field.
The following example shows how you can create a TIME field at the beginning of the main sub-document:
<DxRichEdit @ref="@richEdit" />
@code {
DxRichEdit richEdit;
Document documentAPI;
@* ... *@
/* Surround the code that contains an asynchronous operation with a try-catch block to handle
the OperationCanceledException. This exception is thrown when an asynchronous operation is canceled. */
try {
documentAPI = richEdit.DocumentAPI;
@* ... *@
// Creates an empty field
Field timeField = await documentAPI.Fields.CreateAsync(0, 0);
// Inserts text to the field
await documentAPI.AddTextAsync(1, "TIME");
// Updates the field
await documentAPI.Fields.UpdateAsync(timeField);
@* ... *@
}
catch (OperationCanceledException e) {
Console.WriteLine($"{nameof(OperationCanceledException)} thrown with message: {e.Message}");
}
}
Update a field to calculate and display the field result. The UpdateAsync(Field, CancellationToken) method allows you to update a field. Call the UpdateAllAsync(Boolean, CancellationToken) method to update every field in a sub-document or in all sub-documents.
