Display characters left in string field on New form

[Srinivas Balusu]

Hi,

I am just eager to check if there is a property / attribute that I can use to display the characters left in a string field. Something like below.

As i Type in something it should display '500 characters Remaining'

I think you'd have to write something pretty custom to make that happen. Unfortunately there's no property for it.

Thanks Brad

In Helsinki, there is a system property (glide.ui.textarea.character_counter) that will enable it for text areas (not single line string fields)

My DEV instance (on Helsinki) after enabling:

Hi @jarodm 

Would it be possible to enable the same behaviour in Workspace? The functionality is working as expected in the Classic UI, however, it does not seem to be available in Workspace.
