Preview updated RichTextItem into Xpages computed field

Hello Forum,

I'm looking for a way to retrieve a NotesRichTextItem from a document, updating some RT content and preview it into a Xpage computed field.

My code:

// Retrieve my Template RichTextItem from my template Document

var vw:NotesView = database.getView('(vwTemplate)');

var userDoc:NotesDocument = vw.getDocumentByKey('MyTemplate', true);

var rtTemplate:NotesRichTextItem = userDoc.getFirstItem('Template');

// Update text contained into my template

var rtRange:NotesRichTextRange = rtTemplate.createRange();

rtRange.findandReplace('varUserName', @Name('[CN]',varUserName));

// I'm now looking for a way to preview my update template RT into a computed field, but it's not working... Xpage ERROR.

getComponent("cfTemplatePreview").setValue(rtTemplate);

With rtTemplate.getText() I'm able to preview the text contained into my RT Item, but without formatting and I'm missing the pictures contained into my template RT Item.

Does anybody have an idea?

Thx in advance for your help,

Chris

I don't think you are able to display Rich Text in a computed field. Try using a RT Field instead and check the property to make it read only.

Thx Rod,

But even with a RT component I was unable to show the content... If you have any idea how to do, I would appreciate.

Regards,

Chris
