Verbesserungsvorschlag – Zusammenfassung: Increase usability of text asset editor in AEM Forms by adding colors
Use Case: Text asset editing and data field handing in AEM forms
Derzeitiges/erlebtes Verhalten: Fields within text assets can have two different ways of behavior - user can add data or not. For a template author no way exists to distinguish the elements as both looks same
Verbessertes/erwartetes Verhalten:  Given that a text asset is edited and  fields out of a data dictionary will be added

When the field is added as "Locked", the field will appear in the text asset with red highlight color

When the field is added as "Open" the field will appear in the text asset with green highlight color

Umgebungsdetails (AEM-Version/Service Pack, ggf. andere Besonderheiten): AEM Forms 6.5.7 with compatibilty package
Kundenname/Organisationsname: Deutsche Bank

@mreul I have shared this with the AEM Forms SMEs to have a look at this one.

Hello @mreul ,

the display of mandatory/non-mandatory fields in Interactive Communications text asset really needs improvement.

You should pass this to your Technical Account Manager for a feature request once your Premier Support Elite starts 🙂

Kind regards

Kosta
