Can HTML be used for values?

DougBrowning — Fri, 04 Oct 2019 15:47:33 GMT

Is it possible to use HTML to style the value vs just the label, note, and hint?

In this example I want the word Transect AND the A in larger red font.

Does not accept it in the calculation column and I cannot find any help on it.

Thanks

Hi Doug,

Yes, you can use HTML for valuse. Just need to modify the choice tab and the label for your choices using HTML formatting.

This is just a text field and not a list.

HTML can be used in the label or hint field, or the labels of choice lists.

What type of field did you use for the word Transect AND the A?

Just a simple note

note Transect <font size="4" color="red"><b>Transect</b></font> horizontal-compact pulldata('TransectCodes', 'TransectLetter', 'TransectNum', ${TransectNum})

I want the A to be big and red also.

It is set values so I guess i could make it a list - as long as pulldata still works ok. But I would think we could control the value and not just the label.

Thanks

Currently we have issue with using dynamically set values & HTML formatting.

Could you contact Tech Support to log an issue so that this issue could be promoted to a higher priority for fixing?

HTML tags do not seem to work in a Pulldata list either. I would like to pull in values with formatting.

Hi Doug,

Yes, the pulldata function would need to populate a question in order to be used for variable interpolation.

Huh? I mean I want the label in the csv to come in with html tags. So say A is red, B is blue, etc

Hi Doug,

The code you provided above will not be supported. You would need to have the pulldata in a seperate question, which is then used in the label field, to accomplish that. It's how variable interpolation (which is different than calculation) is designed.
