Hi @johnjohn123
Let's say that you want to display your field in a gallery control.
To do this, you would add an HTML text control to the layout template.
You would then modify the HTMLtext property so that it references the name of your field.
In your example, it would look something like:
ThisItem.'Approve Feedback and notes'
@timlso you mean i need to add HTMLText Control not a direct sharepoint field? i/f so then how i can map the HTMLText Control to the sharepoint app?
Hi @johnjohn123
What I was trying to clarify was whether the data in the field was being entered through some other app or program, or thorough a Flow or some other process.
If you're entering the data directly through SharePoint, it should be possible to escape these characters correctly. Just to correct what I said above, it's the "Html text control" that will do this. Can you confirm if you still see the same problem when you use this control?
@timli did not get your point, i am entering ":" inside the rich text field>> but it will be rendered inside power app as ":"
Hi @johnjohn123
How is the data in your field being populated? : is the escaped version of the colon character, so that should actually render correctly as a colon character in your rich text control.
Is it possible that your input data is somehow being "double escaped" on entry?
@timlyes i tried this before.. and i will get strange code as follow:-
so i am not sure if u have ever worked on a project and it was acceptable to have codes such as ":" all over a field!!
HI @johnjohn123
I'm pretty sure that if you use the rich text control, that problem won't occur. Is that something that you've tried?
