Literal parameter : issue with unbalanced [ or ] in the text being input
Hi All,
I am facing an interesting issue (or a bug).
Requirement: Capturing comments using a text box (linked with a literal parameter) and save it as annotation text so that it can be pulled in ...
I'm not sure that using a literal parameter will help since multiple users can do this, and there is only one literal parameter. That being said not sure you can do much about that if they have a closing ] without an open one. You might have to tell users that if they are using ]s, then it must be balanced.

The problem is before even getting to a rule; it'll fail, which is what is there in his screenshot.
