Default Value of Field type Texteditor

[tovoro]

Hello

It would be great if we could use the texteditor in the default value of a custom field with type texteditor, so we could have some nicely formatted default values for fields in our Quotes for example.

This is already mentioned on Github: https://github.com/espocrm/espocrm/issues/3331

Is there a way to change this in the code and if yes, can someone point me in the right direction? Will it affect upgrades? I have not developed anything within espocrm yet.

Thanks for your help
Tobi

Hi,
If i understand you can change the "view" of the field.. in upgrade safe.

You can create a json at
custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/YourEntity.json.

{
    "fields": {
        "description": {
            "type": "text",
            "view": "views/fields/wysiwyg"    // This is the new view of out-of-box description field
        }
} 

clearCache and rebuild (from admin section)
Try it .. i don't know how is in database but certainly perfect. (someone can correct if it's bad proposition)
