Description
After a Calculation is validated and saved any text formatting used when creating/editing the Calculation is lost.
We would want to keep the text formatting used when the calculation was created/edited.

Developers have different ways of formatting calculations.

Keeping the text formatting of a calculation will make it easier to understand and cha change the calculation.

Useful.
I don't know if there is a way to add comments in a calculation editor box, otherwise it would also be an option to add.0 -
Hi, yes, you can add comments to the calculation editor box by commenting the texts out -- /** comments text here **/. I have found this helpful while testing calculations and, of course, explaining what I am trying to calculate.

It'd make writing / reading formulae much easier!
