Enable Rich Text Editor in Web Report Designer

• Feb 09, 2026

The XRRichText control can display text with rich formatting in your report. You can specify content directly in the control, load text from an RTF/HTML file, or bind the control to a data field.

You can activate an inline Rich Text Editor and allow users to format and edit content in the Web Report Designer:

Note

The inline Rich Text Editor does not support Right-To-Left mode. For more information on limitations, refer to the following help topic: Rich Text Editor Unsupported Features.

Important

The Rich Text Editor is based on the DxRichEdit component. The DxRichEdit ships as part of the following subscriptions: ASP.NET & Blazor, DXperience, and Universal. Refer to the following page for additional information: DevExpress Subscriptions.

Follow the steps below to enable inline editing functionality in the Rich Text control:

1. In the App.razor file, call the RegisterRichEditScripts() method to register scripts required for the inline Rich Text Editor.

   @using DevExpress.Blazor.Reporting
   
   @DxResourceManager.RegisterScripts((config) => {
           config.ConfigureReporting(x => x.RegisterRichEditScripts());
       })
   

   Refer to the following topic for the list of DevExpress resources for Blazor components: DxResourceManager.

2. Reference the Rich Edit stylesheet:
