Rich text editor in Dynamics CRM case timeline

Posted on by 50

Hi,

Is there a way to manage a Portal Comment description text using Rich Text editor?

I'm able to set the description field with a Rich Text Editor in "New Portal Comment" form:

but the text created using Rich Text Editor is not visible with same format in Timeline:

    Thanks for your suggestion Dynamics_User07 I've solved changing the type of standard Portal Comment Description field with "Rich Text"

    Hi,

    I can create a new Multi line text field as "Rich Text" (Eg. Description_RT) on Portal Comment table, but how can I change the field (from "Description" to "Description_RT") in Case timeline?

    Moreover, I have no way to change the form "Add Comment" in the Portal, so I can't change the description field within:

    Login into power apps and change the format as suggested in the link. I Hope it helps.

    Hi,

    Yes the RichText for timeline is enabled, but unfortunately this check works only for notes and not for Portal Comments

    Regards

    Hello,

    Check if the ReachText for TimeLine settings is enabled in System Settings - dynamics-chronicles.com/.../dynamics-365-how-enable-rich-text-notes-timeline
