d:text length

[uwe_wolfinger]

In a custom type i have a property which is of type d:text. Unfortunately it seems, that the length of the field is limited to 1024 chars. I can extend the richtext input in the form by the control-param maxLength, unfortunately this has no effect, when the data is saved. The content is cut to 1024 chars.

Is there a way to extend the max chars of d:text? Or should i use another content type (e.g. i tried d:content, but could not get the form editor working - in the form, only the content url is displayed)?

Kind regards,
Uwe

Hello,

there is a bug with a "bugfix" in the audit component that can cause text values to be truncated. The d:text property itself has no size limitation, but in the audit component there is a limit for 1024 characters. That limit should not affect the property, but unfortunately someone did not implement it in the correct way…
