Custom CSS properties

Customize the appearance of the Rich Text Editor with custom CSS properties.

You can customize the appearance of the Rich Text Editor using CSS properties by defining them in your CSS files.

For example, to set the minimum height of all Rich Text Editors throughout the backoffice. You could use the following CSS rule:

:root {
    --umb-rte-min-height: 300px;
}

For general information on working with stylesheets and JavaScript in Umbraco, check Stylesheets and JavaScript.

If you wanted to target a specific Rich Text Editor, you can set the stylesheet directly in the configuration.
