readOnlySettings for custom RTE not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

We're looking to set the default 'Description' field on the Case/Incident table to use the Rich Text component. As part of that, we need the field to be read-only and to be limited in height. This article is what I used to investigate how it works:

docs.microsoft.com/.../rich-text-editor-control

So following the above, I've created a new .js webresource using the RTEGlobalConfiguration.json as the base and applied the new resource to the Description field on the Case form. Most other settings work without issue but the readOnlySettings seems to get ignored.

This is what I'm attempting to set it to:

    "readOnlySettings": {
        "height:": 380
    },

And here's the full webresource if it's useful:

    Hi Kapil,

    Thanks for the suggestion. I'd prefer to use Microsoft's recommended implementation, to be honest, but will investigate this if there's a bug with the MS option.
