PowerApps Line Break

Hi,

I am building a PowerApp and have a TextInput field where a user can type endless text.

However when I send an email with the text they have typed, it appears on 1 line instead of different lines.

Is there a way to split this field up every 150 characters for the email and not appear on one line?

Thanks

\n is the standard newline character - have you tried this?

Thank you for your reply.

Do I try and place this within the email HTML code I guess? I havent tried this one yet which is good to know.

Not sure If I need to somehow make the app split line every x amount of characters cause its only going by TextInput4.Text to bring all the text into email currently.

Thanks

Hi @TheLegendTamer ,

Maybe you could try to pass the text from Power Apps into Flow for processing.

I have made a simple test for your reference.

1. Here is my Flow.

length(outputs('Compose'))
int(div(length(triggerBody()['Compose_Inputs']), 150))
substring(outputs('Compose'), add(mul(items('Apply_to_each'), 150), -150), 150)
if(equals(mod(length(outputs('Compose')), 150), 0), null, slice(outputs('Compose'), mul(last(variables('vararray')), 150)))

2. Here is my App.

PowerAppsLineBreak.Run(User().Email,"Test",TextInput1.Text)

Result Screenshot:
