Using Rich Text Format

Overview​

While documenting your processes, you may use rich format for the entered text in both descriptions and extended documentation.

This includes the possibility of using different font colors, color shading, and styles such as:

  • Bold
  • Italic
  • Underlined

Other formatting possibilities include:

  • Indentation and bullets
  • Use of tables
  • Links and images

This applies to the information contained in descriptions and extended attributes such as Textareas and Textboxes.
