Field Decoration for Multi Line fields

[vikasbulchandan]

Hi All,

I need to add field decoration for a multi line field to invoke an UI Macro. I know it doesn't work with Dictionary Attributes since its an multi line field. Any other way to achieve this.

Actual requirement is, I have a multi line field (Field A) and I need an attachment icon next to it so that users can attach documents related to that field. I have a category field which distinguishes various attachments.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Vikas.

Add a formatter below the field and create a custom button using UI Macro.

I tried this approach, but the form doesn't look neat. So trying to find another approach.

Hi Vikas,

There is no way to attach documents to a field. They are attached to the record itself via the sys_attachment table. Placing an icon next to a text field wouldn't serve any useful purpose above the paperclip that is already on the document.

Hi Chuck,

I am not intending to attach documents to field. Intention is to attach documents to record itself. We have categorised the attachments based on Field Names. So having a paperclip icon next to fields will allow users easily categorise the attachments.
