Add <br> or chr(13) or linefeed to tooltips

UI Builder

Is it possible to add a
linebreak, or a chr(13) or equivalent to tooltips so they display prettier within the Tooltip Text Logic block?

Like this:
Line_1
Line_2
Line_3

etc…

Hello @Michael_Kadron!

Unfortunately, no, but I have created an internal ticket BKNDLSS-29847 to create such a feature.
We will let you know as soon as it is ready.

Hello Austin Steil,

I have checked the status of the ticket, and it has been moved to the backlog due to the heavy workload of the team. We will discuss this and I believe we will raise its priority.

Hi @Michael_Kadron

We are sorry we missed the topic without an update.

Since this case is quite rare and there is a workaround, we haven’t implemented any additional logic to handle the multiline tooltips.

Here is the workaround:

  1. add a CustomCode block with the following logic:
 items = items.map(item => {
    if (item === '\n') {
      return React.createElement('br')
    }

    return item
  })

  return React.createElement('span', {}, ...items)

  1. make sure the “Return result” checkbox is disabled

  2. attach to the block any text items you need, the \n item will be replaced with the React element for the line breaking.

  3. you can move it to custom function to be able to reuse the code
