We observed that the Rich Text Editor component seems to use jQuery 3.6.0. Our security scan flagged this version for vulnerabilities.Could you please confirm whether the component is using newer jQuery version (3.7.0 or above)? If not, is there any plan to upgrade the dependency in an upcoming release? An updated version would help avoid security scan issues and improve compatibility from an enterprise security perspective.Thank you.
We have found 2 accessibility concerns with this plugin. Would it be possible to get a bug fix for these issues?
1. The default color value for background text (yellow) does not meet contrast requirements.
2. The table feature does not appear to be keyboard accessible. You are able to tab to and select the icon (using 'Enter' key) but there doesn't seem to be a way to navigate to selecting columns/rows and actually inserting the table using the keyboard.
Thank you!
Per the changes to Chrome and Edge, the plugin will not load and gets blocked by CORS in certain situations. See here https://developer.chrome.com/blog/local-network-access
Please add Access-Control-Request-Private-Network: true to the response so that it will pop a message requesting it be allowed.
We are using richTextTable function on Appian version 25.4 and plugin version 1.16 but we are not able to see font size 16.
Earlier we were using Appian version 24.3 where we were able to see the font size 16 but now only 10 , 14 , 18, 32 are available .
Is there any hot fix for this .
Plugin does not render with Chrome version 1.42. We have verified with several users before and after. Appears that chrome is doing aways with a certain type of dynamic link and they are telling developer to migrate to a new deep-linking solution instead.
The label/instructions framework of component plugins is not specific to this plugin, nor does any plugin have any control over it. I would recommend opening a ticket with Appian Support along the lines of "Common Parameters of Component Plugins do not adhere to Accessibility Standards (one example Rich Text Editor Plugin)".
