How to exclude images from saving?

1st Official Post

    I don't want images (TWPTextObj with wpobjImage as TWPTextObjType) to be saved when using SaveToStream. I'm using WPTOOLS format and have tried setting WP.WriteObjectMode to wobDontSaveImages , wobRTFNoBinary and wobStandardNoBinary . But images are still being saved.

    How can I exclude images from being saved?

    I see that RTFDataCollection.WriteObjectMode and wobDontSaveImages is only considered for RTF files in WPIOWriteRTF.pas and have no effect for any other format, am I correct?

    You can the event BeforeSaveTextObject and set the TextObject:=nil to not save some of the objects depending on certain contions.

    Code
    procedure TForm1.DoBeforeSaveTextObject ( Writer : TWPCustomTextWriter;
    var TextObject : TWPTextObj) ;
begin
   if TextObject .IsImage then TextObject  := nil;
end;

    in OnCreate:

    Code
    WPRichText.RTFData.BeforeSaveTextObject  := DoBeforeSaveTextObject ;
