Overview
The Rich Text Editor Component can be used on Appian interfaces where you want to show the rich text information in readable format to the end user. We can use the component to show it as an email subject typing interface.
With this component you can add images, customize tables etc. This also has a functionality called placeholders using which you can use the same information in multiple items in the editor without retyping.Additionally it allows uploading of images which get stored in the specified Appian folder (requires separate install of the Rich Text Editor Connected System Plug-in).

Key Features & Functionality
Parameters:
Does the required parameter work in the component ? If I set it to required I am still able to submit the form even with the component left empty. Can you please advise on the same ?
Hi sivakumard0001,
I understand your scenario. You need to wait until the load bar at the top to complete which executes the 'saveInto' to update the Local or Rule Input variable.
Yes we have tried that. Let me explain the testcase where we are facing issue upon submission :
Scenario 1 : Enter some data and hit submit. Validation works fine.
Scenario 2 : Enter some data, then clear the data and submit the form before form is loaded. Since richtexteditor loads little slowly the validation for richtexteditor and even sectionLayout fails.
Hope the scenario is clear here.
The Required parameter only shows or hides the asterisk indicating but does not enforce requiredness. To enforce this behavior, use the parameter “validations”. To enforce requiredness only upon submission, use section, or form-level validations.
