To Be

In order for the data to be approved, the hard copy documents should be submitted to HR Administrator as per HR Business Processs.

The request submitted online is valid for 14 calendar days only from request date. Should the hard copy is not received by HR Administrator between 14 calendar days, the request will be expired, and the requestor should send the online request again.

Q: How to do this? There is no problem if we use HTML because I can add "\n\n" at the of "HR Business Process". But this in TextView. Anyone can help? TQVM

    Hi,

    At this moment, webdypro doesnt support new line inside the text property of textview.

    You can refer the below link also:

    TextView and new lines

    As of now, you have to use multiple label or textview to acheive this.

    Hope this helps you.

    Regards,

    Jithin

    Hi,

    I had once encountered similar issue. I had to display two separate lines using text view and line break was not possible in text view. As there was only two lines,I split the text into two.Each part was bounded to context value attributes and used two text views to display the same. If the text to be displayed is less, you can try out the same thing. In case of new line you can just bind space character to the value attribute. Please let me know if this works.

    Thanks,

    Shifa

      Hello,

      Try to bind the TextView UIElement property "Text" with a node attribute and set it to the desired text :

      wdContext.currentContextElement.set<Attribute_name>("Line 1\n\n Line");

      Regards,
