Restless.Converters 1.0.4

Restless Converters

This project provides an Html to Xaml converter and a custom paste handler that enables you to copy/paste (or drag/drop) information from a web site into the FlowDocument of a Rich Text Box.

Manual Usage

string html = GetHtml();
string xaml = HtmlToXamlConverter.Create().SetHtml(html).Convert();
// do something with the xaml

Automatic Usage

PasteHandler.Register(MyRichTextBox);

When your RichTextBox is registered for automatic usage, you can copy/paste (or drag/drop) from a web site, and the conversion occurs behind the scenes

You can also register a TextBox for automatic usage, but this produces no difference unless you register it with the optional PasteHandlerOptions

PasteHandler.Register(MyTextBox, new PasteHandlerOptions(HtmlPasteAction.ConvertToText));

This enables the TextBox to receive the actual Html, not just the text as with the control's default behavior. Note that if you keep a reference to PasteHandler (the return value of the Register() method), you can change the paste handling behavior at run time.
