How can we block the HTML decoding in SmartInfo?

SA-33785

Summary



The user is using a repeat grid with an icon inside one of the column . User when hoveres over the icon, it should show a SmartInfo. The SmartInfo refers to a section that contains a simple one by one layout holding a cell. This cell has as Property the field “Description” and as Control “CPMLimitTextDisplay”. The issue is that when the smart info has the character “<” followed by any other character except the space or if it has any character except the space immediately followed by “>” the text displayed in the SmartInfo gets truncated at that point.
