AmyB Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 How does one apply attributes within a text block input by the user? i.e. See spot run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVI Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 You can have the user enter in the bold tag where they want the text to be bold. ie. see <b>spot</b> run I usually add a field note with this tagging example in it and let the user copy and paste this bold tag into the field. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreightTrain Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 AmyB, In the latest release we now offer a rich text editor for the Store. You can only use it when the field is set to "Text Area - MultiLine". Then edit the fields details, by clicking the field name in the Form Display tab, and set "Enable Rich Text Editor" to 'yes'. There is a plethora of formatting control check boxes for you to make available to the Store if you wish, but Bold is one of the options. Hope this helps!

LVI Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Do you have a bold version of the font that you are using in your collect files? ie. Helvetica Bold You can check this by opening the dif file from your collect, in text edit or word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyB Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 Actually, this does work. It just apparently doesn't like the font I was using. I changed to Times Roman and it works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
