There is also this method for easier creation of custom buttons and items outside the editor and its integration into existing Oracle Forms applications:
public void executeHTMLEditorActionCommand(String actionCommand) - this allows to simulate button clicks and this way can be used to create your own buttons in the host application as they were editor's toolbar buttons. Here below is the list with commands which can be used:
in Oracle Forms to be used like this:
BEGIN
CLEAR_CURRENT_DOCUMENT;
hArgs := FBEAN.CREATE_ARGLIST;
FBEAN.ADD_ARG(hArgs,'file-save');
END fbean.Invoke(bean,1,'executeHTMLEditorActionCommand',hArgs);This example will show the Save file dialog for saving the current content of the editor. Here below is the full list of commands which can be used:

You can customize the editor's appearance also by using the various properties - you can see detailed examples here below:
To set various properties like singleParagraphSpacing, flowToolbarLayout or restrictedFontList, defaultInitialFont, defaultInitialFontSize see the example:
Declare
vString1 varchar2(32000);
Begin
FBean.Set_Property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'singleParagraphSpacing','true');
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'flowToolbarLayout','true');
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'restrictedFontList','Arial,Verdana');
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'defaultInitialFont','Arial');
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'defaultInitialFontSize','10');
End;To hide/show the Source editor and the Preview section use the following code:
FBean.Set_Property('HTMLEDITOR',1,'sourceEditorVisible','false');
FBean.Set_Property('HTMLEDITOR',1,'previewVisible','false');To set the focus outside the editor
Declare
Begin
FBean.Set_Property( 'HTMLEDITOR_AREA', 1, 'transferFocusOutside', 'true');
End;
To set the focus inside the editorDeclare
Begin
FBean.Set_Property( 'HTMLEDITOR_AREA', 1, 'transferFocusInside', 'true');
End;
To disable the editor you can use the following property:Declare
Begin
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'enabled','false');
End;
To enable the editor you can use the following property:Declare
Begin
FBean.set_property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'enabled','true');
End;
To verify if the document has been edited:
Declare
vEdited boolean;
Begin
vEdited := FBean.Get_Bool_Property('HTMLEDITOR_AREA',1,'documentEdited');
if vEdited then
:block3.TEXT_AREA := 'documentEdited=true';
else
:block3.TEXT_AREA := 'documentEdited=false';
end if;
End;
