Getting the length of a scaffolded text field in report
Hi,
I am using a scaffolded page which has a textarea field say "description" and some other fields.I am creating a report based on this page.I want to display some extra characters say "..." depending on the length of description field (based on the data entered) in the report ..How can I achieve this?

Inappropriate?Assuming your field is called 'Description', you could do something like this:
{report-info:data:Description > text:first 50}{report-info:data:Description > text:size > number:greater than 50 > boolean:.../}
