    It would be really cool if the notes field would (optionally?) support markdown formatting. When editing the note in the popup, you would see the markdown (**bold**, etc), but when viewing the text in the form it would be formatted.

    I have moved some data into tap forms from a wiki I was keeping, and it is in markdown, would be great to see it formatted.

    Thanks,
    Jason

    Hello Jason,

    At some point I would like to support rich text editing in the Notes field, but it would most likely end up being just a toolbar or options to specify bold, underline, italics, font size, colour, etc. Markdown is a bit techie for the average user.

    Thanks for the suggestion though.

    Markdown would be great, to be honest, especially when exporting to csv to use data elsewhere…

    On top of this, it would be fantastic to have a full screen option when reading and editing notes on all three platforms: Mac, iPhone and iPad.

    Regards

    Folding Text would also be great …

    Given that more than one “markup” syntax exists, I would wonder whether external translators are therefore the tools to use …
