There any way to append a dynamic link to a text field? For example, in a Text field with read only mode that contains a lot of characters. I want to truncate the characters and add a link after it that says "Expand" or "Read More", If they click on it, the user will sees all the text.

      You cannot add a dynamic link to text field. Thats why use rich text display field and specify label and label position. it will act as text field in readonly mode.

        Hii rishukumarg1965,
        As of my knowledge, you can not append a dynamic link to a text field but you can achieve it by using the richTextDisplay Field, hope this will help you
        Thankyou
