I tried to implement vertical paragraph alignment feature to TRichEdit control. It is such a headache. And i also need transparent background support from RichEdit control. Can you suggest any free or paid VCL RichEdit component that has full RTF support and transparent background support.

1The [`TRichView`](http://www.trichview.com/) control is *not* a wrapper for the Windows Rich Edit control, I have been told, but it might work for you anyway. I have never tried it, but I guess you can download compiled sample demos and try those. – Andreas Rejbrand Jun 15 '11 at 17:13

As far as I know, TRichView do not support transparency. – tutalia Jun 15 '11 at 17:37

@tutalia: So you are interested in a [window-less Rich Edit control](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb787609(VS.85).aspx), or a custom control with similar behaviour? – Andreas Rejbrand Jun 15 '11 at 17:42

@Andreas Rejbrand: custom control with similar behavior. – tutalia Jun 15 '11 at 18:09

I think you asked something similar a couple of days ago - Time to start thinking "I don't need a TRichEdit" I need a "Roll my own component" Its probably less time consuming to do that than spend days trying to make richedit do what it can't. Just a suggestion... – Despatcher Jun 15 '11 at 18:40

1Delphi wraps quite backward Rich Edit control (2.0 in relatively modern D210) while MS keeps developing newer and newer versions. See overview of modern features missing from VCL - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb787873(VS.85).aspx – Premature Optimization Jun 15 '11 at 20:13

Indeed ! We are now in 2019 and Embarcadero is still lagging behind ... unable to propose a Richedit wrapper based on the latest standards and the latest DLL ... I would a expect a wrapper that is capable of accepting pasted pictures. – Emmanuel Ichbiah Jan 10 '19 at 18:44
