Kentico CMS comes with a built-in WYSIWYG editor. It is based on CKeditor, which is one of the best browser-based editors available on the market. However, it is possible to integrate your custom WYSIWYG editor instead of the built-in one.
You can come across the WYSIWYG editor in many parts of the system. However, its main use is related to the Editable text web part, which enables content editors to enter page content via the Page tab.
Another example of the use of the WYSIWYG editor is the HTML area form control that can be displayed e.g. on the Form tab of a document, as a part of Form or in web part properties dialogs of certain web parts (e.g. Static HTML or Silverlight application).
The default toolbar looks like this:
As you can see, it provides functionality similar to Microsoft Word. Still, there are several icons that may require additional explanation:
