more flexibility with data field

[BPf]

I'm trying to set up a template with a copyright "stamp" that should look like "©<year> <author>" where the <year> field should be updated to the saving date but show the year only.

• Trying to have tight text field does not help, the full field content is visible even beyond the field boundary (should be fixed?)
• overlaying the unwanted part with a filled rectangle of the background's color is a workaround but has drawbacks when changing
  • to a font of different width
  • the background color

I think it would be desirable to have more flexibility in defining the format of a (date) field beyond the few choices available through the drop-down menu.
