Invent Logic | Field Actions | Set Text Mode | IV_Logic_021

In this segment, we discuss the ability to set text mode within a field using an if-statement in Invent. This feature allows you to control whether text is fixed, prevents rich text formatting, or disallows any formatting altogether. The configuration involves simple actions: choosing a field and setting its text mode to one of the four options—normal, fixed text, no rich formatting, or no formatting.

00:00:06:02 - 00:00:07:16
Now the final one here,

00:00:07:16 - 00:00:11:11
as I was setting up an example for this,
I came across a slight problem with it.

00:00:11:11 - 00:00:14:21
So I can't show you it right now, but
it is going to be fixed very, very soon.

00:00:15:11 - 00:00:18:11
This gives you the ability
to set the text mode.

00:00:19:10 - 00:00:21:05
and what this essentially does.

00:00:21:05 - 00:00:23:03
So if I just

00:00:23:03 - 00:00:26:03
load up the pop up window here,

00:00:27:03 - 00:00:29:19
I'm not logged in as administrator,
so I can't

00:00:29:19 - 00:00:32:28
but basically there's a few options
in that details tab there

00:00:33:09 - 00:00:36:11
which allows you to say
whether it's fixed text,

00:00:36:24 - 00:00:40:14
which would mean that the end user
can't modify the text in the field.

00:00:40:14 - 00:00:44:17
Or you can specify whether there's
no rich formatting

00:00:45:02 - 00:00:47:28
so that will remove the ability
for the customer

00:00:47:28 - 00:00:51:09
to use the rich text formatting options
within that field.

00:00:51:28 - 00:00:54:25
Or you can specify no formatting at all,

00:00:54:25 - 00:00:58:11
so it won't allow the customer to modify
any formatting inside that field.

00:00:59:03 - 00:00:59:28
All of the

00:01:01:00 - 00:01:03:01
things that you can drive from the actual

00:01:03:01 - 00:01:06:15
in that logic are basically just choosing
text boxes.

00:01:07:03 - 00:01:10:03
choosing Boolean values
within that details tab,

00:01:10:21 - 00:01:13:12
to control those individual things.

00:01:13:12 - 00:01:16:13
So the configuration of that one is again,

00:01:16:13 - 00:01:19:13
super simple.

00:01:21:24 - 00:01:25:01
Oh my actions
I choose a field say set text mode.

00:01:25:14 - 00:01:27:13
And I've got there's four options
to choose from.

00:01:27:13 - 00:01:28:28
Normal is your default.

00:01:28:28 - 00:01:31:26
And then there's those other three
potential options that I'm showing you.

00:01:31:26 - 00:01:32:02
There.
