Working with Text Editor

Working with Text Editor

The Text Editor has an HTML content editor for formatting rich text in multi-line field. To use the Text Editor, you must enable "Enhanced Multi-line Text Control" on the Property Type Page for the Memotext Property Type. Without enabling this property, the Memotext field provides either read-only HTML or editable plain text fields.

Further, the Memotext field on a site can be edited in the text mode. However, you convert it to HTML in the Object Explorer, you can no longer edit the field.

 

You can edit the HTML content of your site with the Text Editor. Like Word processors, the Text Editor offers additional formatting options.

You can use the Text Editor to enter HTML code (including hyperlinks and images), print multi-line text, and copy and paste formatted text into other applications such as Microsoft Word.

Review and Approval Notifications

If Workflowhas been enabled for your site, when a text field has been altered using the Text Editor and a user desires to save the changes made, the designated Approver is sent a 'Pending Changes' notification email. Any changes made will not be implemented until authorized by the Approver. The Approver will receive an email stating: 'This property contains HTML content. Please review this change in Evolve'. -prompting them to access Evolve and assess the detail of all HTML changes made. This content is not included within the email as email systems will often display this incorrectly and cause confusion for the user.

Displaying Diagrams

Display a CW Modeler Diagram

Any diagram in your model created in CW Modeler can be displayed in your Evolve Site.

You can display diagrams on any Object Page where the focus is the Diagram Object Type, or on Object Pages where the focus is a different Object Type, but a Tab is used to display diagrams the object appears on or details.

You can also display diagrams on Index Pages where one or more diagrams are returned. For performance and usability reasons it may not be appropriate to display multiple diagrams on one Index Page, however you could easily use the page filters so that only one diagram is returned in the results.

The default method for displaying CW Modeler diagrams is to use the CW Modeler Diagram behavior, but you can experiment with a newer behavior - Vector (HTML5) - which provides improved quality and scaling.
