@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;
            Paragraph firstParagraph = await documentAPI.Paragraphs.GetAsync(0);
            await documentAPI.RemoveAsync(firstParagraph.Interval.Start + firstParagraph.Interval.Length - 1, 1);
        }
        catch (OperationCanceledException e) {
            Console.WriteLine($"{nameof(OperationCanceledException)} thrown with message: {e.Message}");
        }
}
