I have tried the Entry control (RadEntry) this seems to be single line text
I have tried the RadRichTextEditor, this is only html, does this have a plain text mode?
I have tried RadDataForm with DataFormMultiLineEditor which has multi line text but cant seem to get a text selection.
Is there no a multi line text box that we can use in MAUI?
I have tried the standard Editor but the Text Selection seems odd and cannot figure that out?
This seems like an obvious control to have in the suite? Any ideas?

Hello Mark,
To answer your questions, the Telerik Entry is a single line editor. For multiline support, we have a feature request: https://feedback.telerik.com/maui/1569587-entry-provide-multiline-scrolling-support Cast your vote and follow the item.
I am glad to hear you found a solution with the MAUI Editor control.
Regards,
Didi

ok, I have managed to use the standard Editor and the SelectedLength and CursorPosition to do what I need
<Editor Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0"
x:Name="Editor"
Margin="0,0,0,0"
AutoSize="TextChanges"
FlowDirection="LeftToRight"
FontSize="14"
VerticalOptions="Start"
HorizontalOptions="Fill"
Text="{Binding EditorText, Mode=TwoWay}"
SelectionLength="{Binding EditorSelectionLength, Mode=TwoWay}"
CursorPosition="{Binding EditorCursorPosition, Mode=TwoWay}"
/>
