Is there a limit to the amount of text I can put into a text property ?

Hi Paul,
 
All text fields do not have any size limits (well, it is 1GB)
The various UIs each have different display limits however. A grid cell for example limits it to approx 2000 characters. The rest is clipped
To view the rest, you can use the new Item Editor

I was thinking of the a property of an item.  Properties can be text.
 
I am trying to think of a way to get Graphviz diagrams into InfoQube.
 
The source code could be in a text property if there were a way to edit it conveniently.  It could then be passed to Graphviz and then I would have to import the output from Graphviz and paste it into the document pane of an item.  This could be done using an AHK script passing the data via the clipboard.
 
The output from Graphviz can be in a wide variety of formats.  Both vector formats and bitmap formats.

You can certainly export Graphwiz to SVG and show that in the Doc pane.
 
If the item points to the Graphwiz file (Fileref or URL), you can single-click to edit it and when you export as SVG, the Doc pane will automatically update
