RTC WI Description Attribute: Table or at least other font possible?
If not it would help if the font in the description field could be changed to one with a fixed width. So they could build up kind of tables with - and | characters. Is this possible?

to here (syntax)
http://www.wikicreole.org/
of course, neither the description or comment fields are defined as wiki type..

Thanks Sam. I knew it was described somewhere.
Plus, I looked into the description and the external one also provides the syntax for a table. this actually works in a Wiki Attribute (RTC 5.0.2) The syntax is:
|=id |=What |=test |
|1| abc | defghijk |
|2| defg | defghijk |
|12| hijklm | defghijk |
|13| this is a really long one | lorem ipsum |

I think it does not support all Wiki syntaxes though. (P.S: I am still trying to figure out which syntaxes are supported. Cannot find anywhere (:-( )

In the web UI, in edit mode, is a question mark over the presentation that explains the WIKI syntax.
Wiki does not support table as far as I can see.
HTML does not support tables (for manual editing at least)
I tried a Wiki Type Attribute in CLM 5.0.2. Does not work. Syntax is very restricted. It's not even possible to paste a table from RRC editor.
What about the fixed width font?
See Sam's hint below. In wiki a table is described using
|= |=table|=header |
|1| abc | defghijk |
|2| defg | defghijk |
|12| hijklm | defghijk |
|13| this is a really long one | lorem ipsum |
Tables can be created, but they require custom coding (see the time tracking section) and plugins to the RTC back end.
