========================================================
Feature: #93794 - Override TCA description with TSconfig
========================================================
See :issue:`93794`
Description
===========
The TCA description, introduced in :issue:`85410`, allows to define a description
for a TCA field, next to its label. Since the purpose of a field may change
depending on the current page, it is now possible to override the TCA
description property with page TSconfig.
.. code-block:: typoscript
TCEFORM.aTable.aField.description = override description
As already known from other properties, this can also be configured for a
specific language.
.. code-block:: typoscript
TCEFORM.aTable.aField.description.de = override description for DE
The option can be used on a per record type basis, too.
.. code-block:: typoscript
TCEFORM.aTable.aField.types.aType.description = override description for aType
Also referencing language labels is supported.
.. code-block:: typoscript
TCEFORM.aTable.aField.description = LLL:EXT:my_ext/Resources/Private/Language/locallang.xlf:override_description
.. note::
The new option can not only be used to override an existing property,
but also to set a description for a field, that has not yet been
configured a description in TCA.
