DataTable Multiple Lines of Text

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 381

Hi All, 

 

I have a Data Table reading from a SPO List. One of the columns being displayed in the Data Table is a Description (which in SPO in a multiple lines of text)

However, in the Data Table, i am unable to read all the text unless i make the column width very long. (this is not ideal as i want to display other columns)

How can i make the Description on the Data Table appear as Multiple Lines. I cant see any options to do this.

    I don't think if there is a way like that. But, then again i don't have much experience with Data Table. In the gallery you can take a simple small width label and  have tooltip property display all the data when user hovers mouse pointer over data field.
