Xenforo editor - options?

[jauburn]

Some of my users are wanting a better editor than the one provided in Xenforo. What are my options?

Specifically, I've gotten this criticism?

The editor isn't great: the window too small, there is no preview, and it screws up line breaks. I pasted the longish doc in, and it seems like the line breaks were randomly: (1) included, (2) expanded or (2) ignored; and the ignored ones can't be re-added for some reason.

Can any of these issues be addressed either within xenforo or by adding a different editor?

Thanks.

Thanks, I implemented both of these "fixes," and while they do indeed fix some things, other things are still broken. The most troublesome: text pasted from Word into the visual editor contains extra line breaks in-between paragraphs. Is there a way to fix this?

I think the problems with tinymce lay within tinymce itself...as far as adding a different editor, that is not cut and dry, could be done but would take serious effort and much time.

TinyMce has an official plugin for this. I've no idea if its easy or not to integrate to XenForo. What I always do when I don!t want any formatted text is simply to paste first inside my computer editor, check the text here, then copy and past it inside the RTE.
