Turning on character count on single line text fields

[samadam]

Is there a way to turn on character limits on single line text fields? I have a requirement to limit the number of characters but dont want to change the fields length as it may truncate existing records so looking to see if I can turn on character count and then have a client script.

Hi @samadam as far as i know character count is used for journal and multi line fields,

here you can define a regex under variable validation regex module and use it on your variable like below

Regex : ^[A-Za-z\s]{0,10}$ // limit up to 10 characters including spaces
