I created a Read-only text field and configured to the screen.But I could not see visually anywhere in the screen. Could you please tell some suggestions

Hi @Dhivya Jayamani,

what kind of custom field is your text field? Is it a "Message Custom Field (for edit)"?

If not, create one of this type, add your text as default value in the configuration and put it on the screen.

Thank you Thomas.

It worked well.I can see the static text in the screen by using the Message Field as suggested

How do i add the wiki renderer to the created message field ?

Because I can see the " {Panel:bg color=....}TEXT added "

[Thomas Schlegel]

I think, you can't. Usually, you change the renderer on the field configuration, but I have just checked my Message Custom Fields, there is no option for the renderers.

[Dhivya Jayamani]

oh really?

is there a way that i can make some styles to the static text created using Message field? or some can i apply some font changes or colors to it ?

[Thomas Schlegel]

We use a system div for that purpose:

<div id="adminMessages" class="notify info"><p>your text</p></div>

Thanks.It worked now by using HTML tags
