A description field for fields/vars?

edited February 2005 in FastReport 3.0
How about an additional description field in the designer which is displayed below the db-fields navigator?
often we are limited by database dependant limitations for column names (max. 30 Characters no blanks etc.).

I know we could use aliases but a longer description would be very helpful (like the very usefull description below the property editor ;) .

A suggestion would be to edit them like the alias-list, if a description for a field exists it will be displayed below the data navigator.

the same could apply for defined variables ( - ok, sometimes customers may be wanting to much ...).

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.
