Additional Formatting in Asset Properties

We are putting code values into the a custom attribute called valid values. The code and description do not line up correctly. Tabluar format with bolded headings would be ideal.

    Hi Susanna,

    I think i made a mistake. I have submitted this for Infosphere Information Server Information Governance Catalog. What i am describing is that in the properties of an asset in IGC everything is in plain text format so when you save the property it throws off all the spacing.

    This makes it cumbersome to store information that would otherwise be in a tabular format.

    Like in my example.

    A code and its description.

    Hence i see it beneficial to be able to store property information in a tabular manner or to use html markup to format the data in the property field.

    Please let me know if this is correct.

    Thanks,

    Hernando

    Hi Hernando, are you referring to the Details section of, say a business term, where we list the custom attributes? I don't know what you mean by "The code and description do not line up correctly. ".
