Icon inside input field

[vinebath]

Hi, 

I would like to have an icon inside input field, alike what is in the attachments (screen of this forums' search field at the top), but on the left side.  Can someone advise?

Hi @vinebath,

You can add a Glyph icon with the additional CSS styles and bootstrap library:

1.  Open "Search and Report Wizard - Configure Search Fields" screen, where should be at least one field. Create a Header and Footer element and two HTML blocks, where the HTML editor should be disabled. Please look at  the screenshot below to see the structure of the DataPage elements:



2. Move to the Header and put the following code there:

<link href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<style>
.cbFormTextField {
	padding-left: 25px;
}

.inner-addon {
	position: relative;
}


/* style glyph */

.inner-addon .glyphicon {
	position: absolute;
	padding: 10px;
	pointer-events: none;
}

.glyphicon {
	top: 11px !important;
}


/* align glyph */

.left-addon .glyphicon {
	left: 95px;
}


/* add padding  */

.left-addon input {
	padding-left: 30px;
}
</style>

3. Put the following code into the first HTML block: 

<div class="inner-addon left-addon">
      <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></i>

4. Put  the code below to the second HTML block:

</div>

5. The result is the following:
