Fields are objects that act as placeholders for dynamic (changing) information in a document.
In the current version of the application, you can create fields of the following type:
–CreateDate (Document creation date)
–Date (Current date)
–FileName (Document name and path)
–Fill-in (Request to enter text to insert into a document)
–ListNum (Numbering of the item in the list)
–SaveDate (Last save date)
–Time (Current time)
Interoperability of these fields between MyText and Word, LibreOffice Writer applications is supported.
Also, MyText supports the operability of REF fields created in Word. REF fields contain cross-references to bookmarks.
REF fields are not displayed in the field creation and customization window. You can only create these fields using the cross-reference insertion window.
The following features are not currently supported:
–Working with fields that are not listed above. If a document contains unsupported fields created in a third-party editor, a dialog box with a list of unsupported fields that will be converted to text or deleted is displayed when you open the document.
–Inserting fields from third-party editors. A copied field or text with a field is pasted without field properties.
–Selecting a part of the field.
–Changing the content of a field manually.
–Different formatting of text within one field. If such a field is created in a third-party editor, the formatting of its first character is applied to all text in the field.
–Support for fields in macros and comments. If a field in a comment is created in a third-party editor, it will be converted to text.
