Hi Dalia,

your are right - it seems that it does not work in SL360 anymore. If you like i can give you a work around though.  Just delete the "type your text here" text from the text entry field - format the entry field the way you like and put a text field on top of the entry field e.g. like this:     

Then you can add a trigger which changes the state of text field to hidden when the user klicks on the entry field. I hope that helps as a quick solution.

Best regards
Marcus
