I put this on SO but I figured I'd try here too..

We have been using fogbugz and have been pasting code in tickets, but it always comes out hammered.

is there any way to denote that a block of text is code?

You know.. Like this

(edit) Is it possible to put some simple html to set the text apart or something??

(edit again)

  • based on my research, html code can be put in the Cases, but not by the web UI.

  • (in the DB) all Cases have a "text" field and an "HTML text" field for the message body, and then there is a flag that shows FogBugz which field to use. Unfortunately, there is no way to enter HTML text via the FogBugz UI. So this means that it is possible for a fogbugz plugin to be able to do the job, but none exist yet.

I will leave this one open for now, an accept an answer that points to a plugin or new feature that does this.

 The DB fields are there because of exploratory development for this and other oft-requested features. You'll see a table called DBCopier there, too, but no database copy functionality. – Rich Armstrong♦ Oct 1 2009 at 20:39

JohnFx says he built one here: http://fogbugzplugins.uservoice.com/pages/20251-fogbugz-plugin-ideas/suggestions/212018-markdown-case-editing?ref=title

It's not quite ready for prime-time yet, but I hope to release it before too long. I'll post it to the Gallery when I have a beta version ready. Keep an eye out for the "Case Markdown" plug-in. – JohnFx♦ Oct 1 2009 at 19:32

There's also a new Code Snippets plugin available in FogBugz 8 that allows you to embed syntax-highlighted code snippets into bug events and wiki articles.

This plugin is only available in FogBugz 8. You can sign up for the beta here!
