    Formatting of HTML enabled fields when put into Content Controls

    Hi,

    We are using the MSF for CMMI templates and with the default Issue definition it seems like the Description is plain text whereas the Analysis allows rich text/HTML markup, i.e. within the VS Team Explorer when editing a Work Item.

    The problem is when I then synchronise Issues which have carriage returns/new lines in the Analysis fields, the Content Controls within the Word document are displayed with the <P> and >&nbsp;

    We really need this resolved asap.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    We are currently evaluating TeamSpec and we like it, but the tools inability to edit richtext/HTML fields from a work item makes it unusable to us as we have our test cases defined as work items where the description is HTML. We really want our manual testers and business analyst to get away from using VSTS/Web Access for editing test fields and start using Word with its rich editing capability.

    Is this a feature you are going to provide in the near future and if so it would be nice to have an indication on when to expect this to be available?

    Cheers
