Character limit on multi line text variable

[wiltonr]

Does anyone know the character limit on the multi line text catalog variable?

Hi Rhonda,

5.3 Text Field Character Counter

By default, multi-line text fields have a 4000 character limit. To help users see how many characters remain before they reach the limit, administrators can enable theglide.ui.textarea.character_counter property. This property adds a counter under text fields, such as the Additional Comments and Work notes fields. The counter is dynamically updated as users enter text.

Hope it helps.

Is this also true of a variable?   On a catalog item with a multi-line text variable, I'm trying to find the limit, but in just typing a continual character in the text area, i'm up to over 8000 characters.

Hi Rhonda,

For variables there is no limit and allows you to as many lines you like.

Thanks!
