Inconsistenty between Pheonix ROM and BIRT 2.5 ? [message #468120]

Hello,

New to BIRT. Using BIRT 2.5 as embedded library in a servlet.

I've tried to defined some script based logic on a Text field, I wanted to
replace the text that is being displayed to the user.

Looking at the ROM,
http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/ref/rom/elements/Text.ht ml#Property-content
it seems that I need to define [[this.content = "ABC"]]

Trying this did not work, but setting [[this.text = "ABC"]] did

I don't see "Text.text" specified any where in the specifications.

Am I looking at the wrong place?

Use a dynamic text element, then you can implement your script logic in
the expression like:

if (a == "abc")
{
"abc";
}
else
{
"def";
}

That ROM documentation hasn't been updated in some time.

It would be good to get a bug logged to update the ROM. Can you log it?
