  • Set default font for text.

To configure Global Rich Text settings:

  • Small Thumbnails: A small thumbnail of the image is shown.
  • Medium Thumbnails (default): A medium thumbnail of the image is shown.
  • Large Thumbnails: A large thumbnail of the image is shown.
  • Full Images: A full-sized version of the image is shown.

Custom Default Font

Uses a default font for all Rich Text Fields.

Click the Ellipses button to open the Font window. Select a Font, Font style, and Size.

Note: The default font selected here applies to all Rich Text Fields that do not have a default font specified in Field Properties. It overrides any font selections made in the Form Editor during Form design. However, if a default font was selected in the Field Properties for a specific Field in a Business Object (example: Resolution Fields in Problems), it overrides the default font selected here.
