Plain Text, based on List of Values problem in Interactive Report (Apex 5) - Escape special characte

RobrechtMar 14 2016 — edited Mar 14 2016

I have created a list of values to replace column values 0 and 1 with certain font awesome icons (<span class="fa fa-circle"></span> and <span class="fa fa-circle-o"></span>). This is a yes/no field but we store the values as 1 (yes) and 0 (no).

When I make a classic report and use this LOV the icons are shown, but in an Interactive report it just shows the html tags <span class="fa fa-circle"></span> and <span class="fa fa-circle-o"></span> instead of the icons.

I have no option for type Plain Text (based on list of values) to set the escape special characters option, this is only available when i chose the Plain Text type (under security).

=> Is this a known issue, are there any workarounds for using my list of values containing font awesome icons in an interactive report?

The reason why I use a list of values is so i can easy change the icons at one central place when needed.
