Text Size limited within Attributes?

Submitted by typomaniac on 2012-02-21

Hello!

i added a field named »description« to the standard issue sets and told it to accept multiple lines of text. Unfortunately this seems to be limited to an unknown number of chars. Do you know any solution? A workaround would be writing a comment which seems to be without limitation ..

thank you so much,

tm

Actually it's not "unknown" but described in the manual :). For longer pieces of text using comments is more efficient, and they can be much longer (in fact you can adjust the maximum length of comments in server settings).

Jip! I support this. Cause of the example if you use an Directory as "Forum", i would be nice if u have an description Field on startup (where u can typ lot of text), and not at the commentar field first... So - would be nice to have ;)

Yeah, I had this issue just now. 255 does not seem like enough to describe a problem.
