Insert a table in Description of Task

[Amy Sung]

Hi, we are using Version 5.2.0j (Build 5804) .

If I'd like to insert a table in Description rather than only text words,
is it possible?

Thank you.

It is not easy but definitely possible.

I would suggest changing the way the description is displayed in EditView to use the TinyMCE html editor to display the field so you can use WYSIWYG editing on it.

Unzip the attached file in your sugar root. It creates a sugar field type TinyMCE using the TinyMCE editor that already ships with SugarCRM.

Then edit custom/modules/Tasks/metadata/editview.php and add 'type' => 'TinyMCE' to the definition of the description field. Do a quick repair on Tasks and it should display as a WYSIWYG editor.

If custom/modules/Tasks/metadata/editview.php does not exist copy modules/Tasks/metadata/editview.php to custom/modules/Tasks/metadata/editview.php first.
