Yes.  Introduced first in AR System 7.6.03.

Rich-text formatting in data fields
You can add rich-text formatting (RTF) to character fields in browsers so that 
users can make changes to the format of text in a character field. For example, 
a user
might want to italicize or center text.

Additionally, you can allow users to add an image to a field with RTF by 
referencing a URL to an image.

See Form and Application Objects Guide, Adding rich-text-formatting 
capabilities to a character field and the Editing fields with rich text 
formatting section in the BMC Remedy Mid Tier Guide.

Re: rich text field

2012-03-01 Thread Easter, David
In 7.5.00, you could use the template based tooltip / view field feature to 
display formatted HTML - but it's not exactly what you're looking for, 
admittedly.  From the 7.5.00 What's New:

Text formatting template and rich text formatting
Templates are a method of formatting text dynamically for presentation in AR 
System. The data included in templates is specified through parameters that the 
client workflow substitutes at runtime. Templates can be used to format text in 
tooltips and view fields.

Templates are stored as HTML file attachments in the AR System Resource 
Definitions form, which enables you to store information about the template. A 
template is HTML code with parameters or field IDs. The template can be a 
complete HTML document (starting and ending with html and body tags) or a 
portion (snippet) of an HTML document (for example, a group of table rows).

A template can be processed using either of these methods:

* Create a Set Fields workflow action that uses the TEMPLATE function 
to place content into a character field or a view field.

* Bind a template directly to a view field. Use this method when you do 
not need to calculate parameter values in workflow.

Templates can be nested within templates, either by using workflow to generate 
content from a template with an HTML snippet and placing it into a hidden 
field, or by using the TEMPLATE function within another TEMPLATE function. A 
message action of the type Tooltip can display the HTML generated by an earlier 
Set Fields action.

For more information about templates, see Chapter 10, Using templates, in the 
Form and Application Objects Guide.
