AceEditor

Ace is an embeddable code editor written in JavaScript. It matches the features and performance of native editors such as Sublime, Vim and TextMate. It can be easily embedded in any web page and JavaScript application. Ace is maintained as the primary editor for Cloud9 IDE and is the successor of the Mozilla Skywriter (Bespin) project.

How to Use

The AceEditor control can be added to a Wisej.NET project using NuGet Package Manager.

Use the Theme and Language properties to customize your AceEditor.

To keep the Text value in sync between the Client and Server while editing, you can specify the AutoUpdateDelay (in milliseconds). If it´s set to 0, the Text property is updated when the focus leaves the AceEditor instance.
