RichTextView

open class RichTextView : AppCompatImageView, RevelControl, DownloadFileTask2.OnCompleted

A custom androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatImageView that displays rich text content by rendering HTML into an image.

This view takes HTML content and associated styling options (like drop shadow), sends them to a remote rendering service, and then downloads and displays the resulting image. This approach allows for consistent rich text rendering across devices by offloading the HTML rendering to a server.

It implements RevelControl for integration into the RevelDigital player system, allowing it to be managed as a content module. It uses DownloadFileTask2 for asynchronous image downloading.
