Hello!

I created a custom tool using the BackgroundColorTool tutorial and inside my onClick method, I would like to call the cleanFormatting.

How do I do that?


const onClick = (e) => {
        EditorUtils.formatBlockElements(view, "p", EditorToolsSettings);

        e.preventDefault();
    };

Hello, Caio,

I can suggest checking the following example that shows how to implement a clear format tool:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/knowledge-base/add-custom-tools-to-the-editor-and-customize-built-in-tools/#toc-clear-format-tool

I hope this is helpful.

Regards,

Thank you Stefan! that solved my problem. However, if I just wanna call an existing prop tool (like cleaningformat), isnt a way like calling $(this).data(kendo-editor).exec('cleaning-format') ?

Currently, this requires the approach shown in the demo. The KendoReact components are specifically made for React and follow the React recommendations. This is why the approach is different than the one used in Kendo UI for jQuery.

If the developer want to make customization and still use the built-in logic of an existing tool, this is the supported way:
