Support for Word fields in the RTF documents
« on: October 04, 2010, 06:59:44 pm »
Hi,

I have a master document in Word, in which the RTF documents generated from EA are included. Now I need the ability to still properly number the diagrams across the master document. Therefore I suggest that at least the {SEQ Figure} field is added in the RTF editor. There might be other useful fields as well (e.g. {SEQ Table}). Maybe you could just add a "Insert Word field" menu entry, which would place whatever a user enters as word field in the RTF document. You shouldn't even deal with validating proper input there, but leave it up to the users to enter the field names and parameters correctly. This way it would be much easier to implement.

Regards,
Michael

I have also been trying to figure out how to add the SEQ field into the RTF Template editor.  Looking for a workaround or a response to add this option into EAs RTF Template editor.

I too wish and vote for substantial support for Word fields.
