Memo fields
Memo fields provide you with a full set of editing options.
Overview
Each item has a memo field, typically named Description. Admins can add other custom memo fields to items.
You can format text in memo fields and in comments using a rich set of editing tools. You can also insert links and mention other users.
For details about comments, see Collaborate.
Links
You can insert links to other items and to external pages:
- To add a link to an existing item, click
and choose #. Add prefix "w" for work item, "s" for user story, "e" for epic, "f" for feature, "d" for defect, "t" for task, and "r" for requirement. For example, #dtest searches for the string "test" in the existing defects. - To add a hyperlink to this area, click the Link button
(you may need to expand a group). The default supported protocols for links are http;https;td;testdirector;mailto. To allow other protocols, admins must add them to the HREF_PROTOCOLS_WHITE_LIST parameter.
Mention users
To mention a user, type "@". Start typing a user's name, or select the user from the list. Your stakeholders and recently-mentioned people are listed highest in the list.
