Sorry, misunderstood you.

As far as I know you can have a predefined rich text editor at run-time.

There are a couple of options.

  1. Create a number of buttons, each one for a rich text function, eg 'bold', 'left align' etc. While it is possible to script for most rich text features, the difficulty may be in getting these buttons to work for more than one field.
  2. An easier option is to set the field to rich text in the Object > Field tab. You can then instruct the user that 'Control+B' will give bold text, etc. Also if the field is set to rich text, then pressing 'Control+E' (for edit) when the field has focus will bring up a floating editor. See below.

I would recommend Option 1. Sorry Option 2.

Hope that helps,

Hi,

There is a rich text editor in LC Designer already. Under the Windows menu there options to show/hide the Font (or Shift+F4) and Paragraph (or Shift+F5) tabs:
