After doing a restore of a configuration from QB 6 to QB 9.
The Description field of a configuration now has html markup in it (a div element to put a blue box around the text).
In QB 6 this is just a text field.
Now with a Configuration Gadget when you hover over Configuration you get the tooltip from the html title attribute
but it displays as html like <div....... Not a nice display.
http://demo.pmease.com/dashboard - hover over Demo/Organize By Departments - you get <div.....
How can we convert these descriptions back to plain text?
Also we have some custom gadgets the show the description as a column in table, we need plain text.
I guess we could edit them all after import and remove the default html wrapping on restore.
Thanks for reporting the issue. I filed a ticket to address the problem in next patch release:
As to displaying the information in your custom gadget, you may modify your plugin to render the html instead of plain text, something like below:
add(new Label(componentId, configuration.getDescription()).setEscapeModelStrings(false));
The gadget is showing the description in a table. So not having the html markup is better.
I have gone through all descriptions and removed the html markup and back to plain text for description.
