Using %%data_element%% in label, tooltip text, etc.

Classic Servoy
1

In my solution, I have several data elements (date_modified, name, modified_by, etc.). To use these in a label field, I’m inserting them with what I believe to be the proper format: adding a %% %% around the data element like so:

Last modified by %%last_modified_by%% on %%date_modified%%.

However, the data do not display correctly, instead giving me an exact copy of the above sentence (without data element substitution.) Any explanations?

I’m doing this in a Record format form, using Servoy Developer
Version 3.5.3-build 516
Java version 1.5.0_06-b05 (Windows XP)

Thanks in advance!

Turns out the solution was hidden in the properties window.

For those that are curious, in order for this to work, the “displaysTags” checkbox must be checked in the properties window.
