Error description

  • It is no longer possible to add coloured text to the body of an
    email being scheduled in the Cognos UI. In Cognos 10, it was
    possible to copy coloured text from a third party text editor,
    and paste it into the email body in Cognos while setting up the
    schedule. The result was the text in Cognos and in the
    subsequent email was in the copied colour.
    In CA, when pasting coloured text into the email body, it
    reverts to black. There is no way to add coloured text.
