richtext

I've encountered several odd behaviors with richtext

1) If I have a richtext field with <master."testfield"> in a band and I set the field to stretch, it seems to think the fields hight is a full page when the field is null in the database (worked in fr2)

2) If testfield contains the string [ABC], I get an undefined variable error. It appears that it is trying to evaluate it as an expression (even when I set evaluate expression to False, it still does it). Changing the expression delimiters makes the problem go away, though I can't think of any delimiter that might not exist in the text. Leaving the delimiters blank seems to treat it as if it was [,]. Even stranger, I tried to translate the brackets into rtf codes (eg. \u91?ABC\u93?) figuring that it wouldn't interpret the brackets as delimiters, but it does.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
