Hello All,
In this post i will provide some alternate solution to text area type fields which in Open UI have elastic control property.
In HI mode there used to be an icon on Text Area fields and on click of the icon a new popup opened and we could write and read the text easily which has been replaced by elastic control in open UI.
here, we are calling a jQuery plugin to dispaly the content of text area in a popup.
also, the issue can also be fixed without using 3rd party jquery plugin but that solution is restrictive, you can refer the link http://www.siebelfoundations.com/2015/09/fixing-text-area-issue-in-siebel-using.html
Features
Working demo is as shown below
