Markdown Viewer
With the Markdown Viewer web extension, you can view a Markdown text in a readable format.
To use the Markdown viewer effectively, pair it with an Input web extension. The Input web extension serves as the input field where you can compose or paste raw Markdown code. This setup allows you to create and preview formatted Markdown text in real time. In this sample report the Markdown web extension is paired with the Input web extension. However, in typical applications the Markdown web extension can be used on its own.
Use these configuration setups:
- Markdown input: Configure the Input web extension to capture user input written in Markdown syntax.
- Formatted output: Configure the Markdown Viewer web extension to detect changes in the text area input and render the formatted result.
- Print and copy-to-clipboard actions: Configure the Toolbar web extension to print the Markdown content or copy it to the clipboard.
The configuration setups support writing, viewing, and printing the Markdown content, which improves the efficiency of the report creation.
The Markdown Viewer web extension provides these features:
- Rendering a text written in the Markdown format.
- Printing the content from the web extension.
- Copying the content from the web extension to the clipboard in a Markdown format. This feature works only in Single tenant.
These parameters must be specified to configure the Markdown Viewer:
- Mode: Specifies the color. Use these values:
- "Light"
- "Dark"
- "High Contrast"
- The empty string value equals to "Light".
- Text: Defines the hint text as a string, which is displayed in the Markdown Viewer window. When the empty string ("") is used, the Markdown Viewer window is blank.
- Print: Starts the print action.
- Copy to Clipboard: Copies the Markdown text to the clipboard in a Markdown format. This feature functions only in single tenant.
