How to use Interactive Grid HTML Expression like Interactive Report Plain Text?

Frantisek MikaNov 23 2017 — edited Nov 23 2017

To imagine an icon in IR we use plsql function which results HTML like <span class="fa fa-user" style="color: grey;"></span> in select. We set Column Type to Plain Text and  Security/Escape special charachters to No.

In IG there is no longer Column Type Plain Text available, so we use two columns - first Column Type Text field named ICON for capturing the HTML text returned by the function above, second Column Type HTML Expression to imagine the status icon.

The problem is, when we refer HTML text to HTML Expression field by &ICON. reference, instead of the icon the original HTML text within quotations - "<span class="fa fa-user" style="color: grey;"></span>" - is rendered.

Any advice?
