Does anybody know if it is possible to utilize html formatting to make text displayed in capitalized letters? I tried several variants from a general google search, no luck so far.

Tried:

test, 

text

Perhaps the only html elements that are supported are the ones listed in the documentation?

The list is _slightly_ longer than in the user manual, but it’s still extremely limited. The HTML support in Vision is a feature of Java Swing, not something we implemented ourselves. You can pretty easily uppercase text in both expressions or scripting, though.

Wow, I overthought that one… Got it with the upper() expression, thanks!
