Diagnoses


Is it possible to remove the 100 character limit?
 

Resolution

The solution is to use the type 'Memo' instead of 'Text'.

If the smartforms View was originally generated against a SmartObject:

1) Edit your SmartObject (in the K2 Designer), so that the property concerned is updated to type 'Memo',
2) Launch the SmartObject Service Tester tool (in: 'C:Program Files (x86)K2 blackpearlBin'),
3) Select the SmartObject (Under the 'SmartObject Explorer'),
4) Right-click on the SmartObject and select 'Refresh SmartObject.

By following these steps you should now be able to change the type to 'Memo' in the View.
