Description Vincent Lorenzo CLA 2017-12-01 05:05:31 EST 
Papyrus should use an html to Image converter to display richtext as image in the table and in the diagram. 
For example, this small framework https://github.com/hkirk/java-html2image could help, but be careful with the licence, it is GPL. 
1. to check with image : it is more time consuming to display image than interpreting ourself html ? 
2. Hyperlink could be activated, parsing the real html and opening a popup menu proposing the hyperlink included in the text on a single click (or other action) onto the figure representing the html.

A draft already exists here https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/112459/
