No configuration for the webpart to use Safe and fast as there is no external saving of data Rich Text editor increases lot of possibilities how you use it Light weight control Installation $ npm install $ gulp clean $ gulp bundle --ship $ gulp package-solution --ship Below are some of the images that demonstrates the webpart. View Mode Edit Mode Please provide your comments , if you need any more feature or how you like the control. Hap...
