Line Breaks in Dialog messages

[aidenhoffman]

I found this post which shows we can use <br> tags for line breaks, but this only works in the dialog-show tool, not in the dialog-show-system tool.

Show-dialog line spacing (application studio, event, components)

fyi, support finally got me some info on this, the “preferred” way is to use <br> (html land), wish I would have thought of that. I actually tried some other simple html like bold and italics and that works also…so you can probably do some neat formatting if you have a use for that gee, embed javascript in there ? lol,

I’ve tried \n, <br>, <br/>; and I’ve tried these tags with single quotes, double quotes, curly braces, double and single quotes around curly braces, and backticks.

Anybody know how to do line breaks in dialog-show-system tool?

Javescript used \n i think. Maybe try that?

Yes, this is a strange one, in Appication Studio events, if you use “kinetic-message-handler” (used to be “erp-message-handler”) depending on which type (Log, Toast, Alert, Dialog, Slideout) is used I have found <br> works or \r\n works…Not very awesome
