- Message format variables `{0}`, `{1}`, etc., and context variables like `@Name@`. - Special variables: `@WindowName@` for window name and `@Row@` for row numberCSS Styling with `AD_Style`
CSS Styling with `AD_Style`
Built from `AD_StyleLine` and uses scoped CSS instead of inline styles.

- Fixed broken list view display when field content includes single or double quotation marks.
