Basic Rich Text Editor

I have found that when adding content to a RTE Text Area that exceeds the height of the text area that the scroll bars do not work appropriately in the basic text editor. I have tested in Chrome and IE8. If the text area is less than 600 pixels in width the scroll bar never appears. If it is more than 600 you get the scroll bars but as soon as you scroll you loose the RTE menu and can only get it back by refreshing the page.
I have switched to the Innova Editor and this seems to work better but it has more options than I want to expose to the users. I have read the documentation on the Innova editor and see how i can customize the menu options but not sure where I should insert this code into Asprunner.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
thank you for pointing me to this bug.

We'll fix it in the next update.
To customize Innova Editor edit files under <project name>/output/plugins/InnovaEditor directory.

Thanks for the response. I am not sure I understand you answer for Innova. The documentation for the Innova Editor shows that to customize the toolbar you would insert code into the asp form that calls it. I looked around and it looks like Asprunner is calling an iframe that references a asp file that calls the Innova Editor. So in oder to customize the toolbar for the Innova editor I would need to go in an edit the raw code of this asp page that is generated by ASPRunner (which btw is very confusing for a novice programmer like me).
Also, i ran a test and any changes I make to this asp page get overwritten every time I do a build.
It seems the process of editing the Innove RTE is much more complex than it needs to be and I will either need to take what Innova provides or wait for the fix to the basic RTE.

Hi,
to customize Innova Editor edit <project name>/output/plugins/InnovaEditor/scripts/editor.js and <project name>/output/plugins/InnovaEditor/scripts/moz/editor.js files.
Also all pages are re-written after rebuilding. You can edit files in the ASPRunnerPro6.1/source/plugins directory. In this case your changes will be permanent.
