Hi,

I am building a canvas app using dataverse for teams. On Edit form, I have a custom data card with label on it. I am trying to set label's text property with a message to be shown in multi line. So I am writing like below on Text property :

"First Line 1" & Char(10) & "Second Line 2"

But its appearing in single line.

If I use label on form without data card, text is appearing in two lines.

I am not finding a way to show this as a multi line text on custom data card with label. Here I am trying this to show validation messages on a Edit form which is connected to data verse.

Can some one suggest how to do this.?

Thanks,

Purna

Hi @PURNA429 ,

I just tested it here and putting shift-enter in the middle of the conditional text produced the desired result

Hi @WarrenBelz ,

Thanks for your response. But this is not working with dynamic text with a condition like this.

lblErrorMessage.Text =
If(DataCardValue2.Selected.Value='Ack_Policy (Environments)'.No,"Please acknowledge that, you are aware of policy")&Char(10)&
If(DataCardValue3.Selected.Value='Ack_ReadDoc (Environments)'.No,"Please acknowledge that, you read the documentation ")

Thanks

Hi @PURNA429 ,

Type in the Text area

"First Line 1 <Shift-Enter> Second Line 2"

where <Shift-Enter> is done on your keyboard.
