[Zoho Creator] Page Variable (Resource) Not Passed from Report to Form in Appointment Module
We are facing a limitation in our Appointment Module related to the handling of page-level variables. We are using a page variable to select a resource, which filters the calendar report effectively and shows only that resource’s availability slots.
However, when we click on a slot to schedule an appointment (which opens a form), only the slot's time is passed. The selected resource (page variable) is not passed to the form, requiring manual re-selection by the user.
This breaks the user flow and introduces risk of data inconsistency.
Request: We would like to know if there is a way to pass the selected page variable (resource) from the page → report → form chain automatically, or if there are any planned enhancements or workarounds for this.

Possible to bold or indent text in the description field?
As part of one item, I often have a detailed description that would be much easier to read if there was the ability to have a bulleted list or bold text and the like. Is this possible? My last invoicing software allowed markup in the field so, for example, an asterisk meant a bullet. I haven't been able to find any documentation related to this. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.

No practical examples of how survey data is analyzed
There are no examples of analysis with analytics of zoho survey data. Only survey meta data is analyzed, such as number of completes, not actual analysis of responses, such as the % in each gender, cross-tabulations of survey responses. One strange characteristic of Zoho analytics is that does not seem aware of how Zoho Survey codes 'multiple response' questions. These are questions where more than one option can be selected from a list. Zoho Survey stores this data as text, separated by commas within
