Left String on Memo Value for List View

+3

I have a List View and a couple of columns that could potentially display a large amount of text.

I was tinkering with the Expressions to use the Left String (column, 150) and it doesn't seem to work.

If I use the 'text' portion of the Display Rows it doesn't display any text.

If I use the 'Field' option of the Display Row it shows up weird text (c1sdfuji43-)

Is there a way to do a left string on a List View for this particular situation?

I keep getting a red circle over the field saying I can't use it with that expression.

Hi,

You cannot reference the same field in your expression as it will create a circular reference.

Create new column and drag a data label control to the column

Add the expression to the new column and use the smartobject field in the expression:

hope that helps
