Populating UI Text Field without line breaks

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 52

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to populate a multi-line text field with various items which will be a combination of static text I set, plus variables that correspond to the static text I type out.  All of the info is populating, but the formatting is not ideal as PAD is entering additional line breaks (this is PAD specifically, it's not an issue with the text field if i were to type in the info manually).  Is there any way to prevent the extra line breaks from being entered, or perhaps some workaround?

 

So, for example, if i wanted this to appear in the UI text field:

 

Company Name: %Company%

Company FEIN#: %FEIN%

Company Address: %Address%

Company Revenue: %Revenue%

Company Employee Count: %Employee Count%

 

In fills as follows, despite no spaces being in my "Text to fill-in" field:

 

Company Name: %Company%

 

Company FEIN#: %FEIN%

 

Company Address: %Address%

 

Company Revenue: %Revenue%

 

Company Employee Count: %Employee Count%

 

Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi @Ernie-Velazquez 

     

    Turn "Emulate typing" off.

    Thanks!  So based on your suggestion i assumed that i should have used send keys instead of populate UI field a I didn't see that option for populate UI field, but did see that for send keys.  That seemed to do the trick!
