Hi,

Im triyng to deploy a custom control to add html editor into textarea felds, i`ve try on different ways to configur manifest, but  can only apply to text felds.

This s manifest example. 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<manifest>
<control namespace="UX365" constructor="UXEditor" version="0.0.1" display-name-key="UXEditor" description-key="UXEditor HTML editor" control-type="standard">
<!-- property node identifies a specific, configurable piece of data that the control expects from CDS -->
<type-group name="Text">
<type>SingleLine.TextArea</type>
<type>SingleLine.Text</type>
<type>Multiple</type>
</type-group>
<property name="field" display-name-key="Text Area" description-key="Text Area to be used for the html editor." of-type-group="Text" usage="bound" required="true" />
<resources>
<code path="index.ts" order="1"/>
<css path="../node_modules/jodit/build/jodit.min.css" order="1" />
<library name="jodit" version=">=3.2.44" order="1">
        <packaged_library path="../node_modules/jodit/build/jodit.min.js" version="3.2.44" />
      </library>
<!-- UNCOMMENT TO ADD MORE RESOURCES
<css path="css/UXEditor.css" order="1" />
<resx path="strings/UXEditor.1033.resx" version="1.0.0" />
-->
</resources>
</control>
</manifest>

 

Thanks!

    Thanks!

    Control version imported was not the last and original manifest has only SingleLine.Text once control imported properly i was able to configure and work with.

    Manifest is correct and I can see all supported types populated in the drop down in debug harness and can configure the control on the multiple lines of text field in the account form. 

     

    Is there any specific entity field you are trying. Can you try with the different entity, some OOB entities might have special logic.
