| 10 | +# Appearance in Blazor Block Editor component |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +The Block Editor component provides several properties to customize its visual appearance, allowing you to control its dimensions, styling, and behavior. |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +## Setting width and height |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +You can specify the width and height for the Block Editor component using the `Width` and `Height` properties. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +```cshtml |
| 19 | +
|
| 20 | +@using Syncfusion.Blazor.BlockEditor; |
| 21 | +
|
| 22 | +<SfBlockEditor Width="100%" Height="80vh"></SfBlockEditor> |
| 23 | +
|
| 24 | +// Or with specific pixel values |
| 25 | +<SfBlockEditor Width="800px" Height="500px"></SfBlockEditor> |
| 26 | +
|
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +## Setting readonly mode |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +You can utilize the `ReadOnly` property to control whether the editor is in read-only mode. When set to `true`, users cannot edit the content but can still view it. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +```cshtml |
| 34 | +
|
| 35 | +@using Syncfusion.Blazor.BlockEditor; |
| 36 | +
|
| 37 | +<SfBlockEditor ReadOnly=true></SfBlockEditor> |
| 38 | +
|
| 39 | +``` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +## Customization using CSS Class |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +You can use the `CssClass` property to customize the appearance of the Block Editor component. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +```cshtml |
| 46 | +
|
| 47 | +@using Syncfusion.Blazor.BlockEditor; |
| 48 | +
|
| 49 | +<SfBlockEditor Width="600px" Height="400px" CssClass="custom-editor-theme"></SfBlockEditor> |
| 50 | +
|
| 51 | +``` |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +The following example demonstrates the usage of `Readonly` and `CssClass` properties of the Block Editor. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +```cshtml |
| 56 | +
|
| 57 | +@using Syncfusion.Blazor.BlockEditor |
