I need to add an action to a view and part of the title is my company name, which has & in it.
On thin client, it shows correctly. On full Eclipse client, the & is missing.
Is there any way to force this to show (other than substituting an icon with the words)???
Subject: Try using & and check
Subject: doesn’t help - just shows Amp. Any other ideas please??
Subject: You can’t use ampersand (“&”) in top-level View Action labels on the Eclipse client . . .
Just ran into this myself and following some testing with R8.5.2: Although you can happily put Actions with labels such as “Save & Remove Attachments” on Forms, the ampersand will not display if:
-
You are using the Eclipse (‘Standard’) Notes client.
-
The Action is in a View’s Action Bar and is ‘top-level’ (not a sub-Action).
So in a View something like “Archive & Remove” will show as “Archive Remove”, but using sub-Actions you can do e.g. “Archiving” \ “Archive & Remove” and it desplays the “&” okay".
Annoying! But if it works for you, use “+” instead of “&”.
