D365 PCF - Characters Remaining

Build Github All Releases

This is a PCF Control to show the number of characters remaining in the field, similar to what is seen on twitter

Example

Supported controls

This can be used on a "Single Line of Text" or a "Multiple Lines of Text" field

Installing the control

Solution file can be found on the releases page

Configuration

  • Open the form editor, then double click the field that should use this control
  • In the configuration window, select the Controls tab
  • Select Add Control...
  • Select Characters Remaining
  • In the Properties of the control, enter the number of lines to use
    • This is not mapped to the number of lines configured for the Multiple Lines of Text fields because there is no access to that information within the PowerApps Component Framework
  • Click OK, Save and Publish the form

Error messages

The control surfaces the same error messages as the default controls used by Dynamics 365
