| Summary | 20485: Force plain text in text fields (questions, answers, description) | ||||
| Description | Hello, When creating a survey several text fields are offered: Question, Answers, Survey description, Survey introduction text, Survey outro (thank you) text, etc When I copy and paste (e.g. form MS Word) text in to that field, the full formatting is kept and translated into HTML. This is ugly and inconsistent in most cases. I need to edit each of that fields manually, in its source view. I would like to have a "plain text" button in the text editors widget. Or much better, I survey wide setting to force plain text or make texts plain text by default. Regards, | ||||
