Append Comments using Patch function - how to make appended values bold (timestamp, username) ?

[MP4249]

Hi,

I am using a solution to allow users to add case notes to a screen in my powerapp.

The below code is working great and adds the user name and timestamp - is there any way to make these elements bold?

I tried <b> </b> but does not work.

atch(RequestUse_1,GalleryUsage.Selected,{CaseNotes:GalleryUsage.Selected.CaseNotes&Char(13)&Char(13)&User().FullName&" - "&Text(Now(),"[$-en-GB]mm/dd/yyyy")&Char(13)&CaseNotes});Reset(CaseNotes)

Thanks!

Hi @MP4249 

Wrapping those elements inside a <b> block should make those elements bold, assuming that you're displaying your case notes in an HTML Text control. Could you confirm that you're using an HTML Text control to display your case notes?

Patch(RequestUse_1,
      GalleryUsage.Selected,
      {CaseNotes:GalleryUsage.Selected.CaseNotes & "<b>" & 
                 Char(13) & Char(13) & User().FullName & " - " & 
                 Text(Now(),"[$-en-GB]mm/dd/yyyy") & Char(13) & CaseNotes & 
                 "</b>"
      }
);
Reset(CaseNotes)

Hi,

No the case notes are just being displayed via the data card of the list form viewer...

Thanks

Hi @MP4249 

If you're using the form/data card control, could you set your case notes field to use the rich text control? That should hopefully solve your problem. You can do this by selecting your Form, clicking the Field > edit link,  and selecting the Control Type dropdown against your case notes field.
