Hi,

I found a Problem about set “Hide Paragraph” and “Paragraph Style” for rich Text when I did app development with Designer 801.

The Steps are:

  1. Create a Rich Text Field

  2. Double click the field

  3. Choose “Hide Paragraph” Section, and click “Hide Paragraph if…” checkbox and fill the condition box with any condition

  4. Then choose “text” option instead of “field”

  5. Choose “paragraph style” section

  6. choose a kind of style except “none”

  7. Go back to “Hide Paragraph” Section, then you will find the checkbox you checked in step 3 is unchecked now.

Please help to check the problem. Thank you so much in advance.

Subject: this is working as designed

First, you should not use hide properties on a paragraph containing a rich text field. See Rich Text field hiding Technote.

Since the hide formula applies to the whole paragraph, it is a paragraph attribute, like the line spacing and indentation. The named style contains hide formula information (or in this case, the fact that there is no hide formula associate with the style). So when you set the style of a paragraph to a named style, you change the hide formula as well as those other attributes.
