Read Only RadRichTextBox

To make the RadRichTextBox read only, you have to set its IsReadOnly property to True.

Read only mode

radRichTextBox1.IsReadOnly = true;

RadRichTextBox1.IsReadOnly = True

Except the ReadOnly property, there are several other properties that can be used to control the response of the RadRichTextBox towards the user actions against it:

  • Enabled - setting this property to False will disable the entire control. The user won't be able to enter any input in it and to scroll the contents.

  • IsSelectionEnabled - setting this property to False will disable the user to perform any selection inside the RadRichTextBox control.
