Examples #

Setting Font Defaults #

Font settings are stored in the GraffitiEditorFonts class that is accessible in the Fonts property of the GraffitiEditor instance. Changes to these settings can be made at any time, but it is recommended that you do so in the Opening event.

me.Fonts.DefaultFace = "Verdana"
me.Fonts.DefaultSize = 23
me.Fonts.DefaultLineHeight = 1.25

Notes #

Custom Toolbar Buttons #

For many plugins to function, they must have a corresponding Toolbar button. For example, if you wish to create your own implementation for inserting links but retain the edit dialog that is displayed when a user clicks a link, you will need to have the built-in link button on the toolbar, but hide it using CSS in the CustomCSS property:

button[data-command="link"] {
  display: none;
}
