This thread is for Ver. 7.9 and so is Vision only. Please don't mix Vision and Perspective questions in the one thread as it causes confusion.

You can start a new thread if [Ignition perspective Limit number of characters allowed in input text field](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-perspective-limit-number-of-characters-allowed-in-input-text-field/37937) doesn't answer your question.
