I am in the process of upgrading from AR12 to AR16 and then AR17. I use RTF text inserted in RichTextBox at design-time of xml section reports.
I note in the AR14->15 notes says “Now you can use a Section Report with an ASP.NET Core with GcDoc based rendering.” and the AR17 documentation it says “RtfRenderingType Renders the RTF control with a legacy renderer or with the WordPad as a metafile or raster image. Only the legacy RTF renderer supports fields.”
Are RTF fields not supported in CrossPlatform mode? It does not seem that I can use RTF at design-time. Does “legacy” indicate that you are planning to phase out support RTF and support for fields in RichTextBox ? If so how would one do mail merge in the future?
