Question

In a!richTextDisplayField() , helpTooltip is used as a parameter. When I used it, the tooltip symbol(?) comes above the label. It should be appearing next to the label like it happens helpTooltip is used as a parameter for a!textField().

Can you suggest some way by which I can place the tooltip symbol(?) next to the label.

Can you try setting label position parameter to ADJACENT value? 

 a!textField(
   label: "label",
   labelPosition: "ADJACENT",
   helpTooltip: "test help tool tip",
   value: "fake text value"
 )

I'm unable to reproduce this behavior.  What version of Appian are you on, and what are your general settings for your rich text display field?

    Thanks for this screenshot [mention:b45a4f6a20b14a008e4e0ec732a8bf98:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]. It's resolved now. The issue was We were using the value field instead of a label field.  We were doing so because as per my knowledge, label field value couldn't be customized. So we used richTextItem() in the value field.

    If there is a way to customize label field value in a!richTextDisplayField(), please share that with me.

    No, the label field in a!richTextDisplayField() works in exactly the same way that it does in all other components.  If you need something highly custom then pretty much your only option is to not set a label, and use formatting within the rich text value itself.  If you need an icon with some help text, you can always just insert a richTextIcon with a caption containing your helper text.
