View and modify requirements in the Requirement Editor view. Edit
the name, description, attributes, and traceability for the requirement. Add
optional HTML tags or use the rich-text editor to format the description.
You can add HTML tags manually on the Description page or edit
the formatted text using the rich-text editor on the Preview page. When you
modify the description on the Preview page, the rich-text editor embeds the
HTML tags for you.
Note: If HTML tags are added to the description, the
formatted text is only displayed in the Preview page in the Requirement Editor
and in the Requirement Text view. The HTML tags are visible on the Description
page, in Attribute Matrix views, and in the Requirement Properties window
in Rational RequisitePro. In those contexts, the tags detract from readability.
Do not use HTML tags to format the description of requirements that are located
in Microsoft Word documents, because the tags may corrupt the Word rendering
of the requirement text.
