Rich Text Editor Control

Rich Text Editor Control:  I am looking for a Rich Text Editor control at field level, which should allow me to format text in different ways. This control is especially useful for creating and displaying formatted text, such as bold, italic, and lists and justify display of text, etc.

In the absence of this feature, text display is pretty ordinary and I have to look for MicroSoft Power Apps for better formatting

I've upvoted this.  Actually, I though I had proposed something similar a long time ago but I can't find it now.

Of course, we currently have rich text in long text fields but, if I understand you correctly, you would like to see an interface like the following to make editing HTML easier.  So would I.

At the moment, Appsheet offers only very ordinary formatting features.

You can use the type LongText with the Formatting as either Markdown or HTML.

I've used some HTML for displaying details, it makes the difference in shrinking down the real estate

I'm going to assume the quickest way to allow formatting without having to write HTML is to use the Markdown format.

If you find anything, please repost, that would be a game changer!!
