LPL to Force Line Break?

smodarressiyazdi

Does LPL exist to force a line break in a text line?

Example:

Text of untranslatable:"2023 Appraisal for (line break) Employee.Name.PreferredFirstAndLastName"

I think I tried to to this in the past and couldn't find an easy way to do it inline, but you could possibly create a field of type LPLText that returns

"u000a" (unicode line feed) or "u000d" (carriage return) and then use that in your text. For instance if you called that field NewLine

Text of untranslatable:"2023Appraisal_for<NewLine>Employee.Name.PreferredFirstAndLastName"

Landmark has a field names SpecialChar that can get you a NewLine and a Tab. I'd try adding a local field of SpecialChar and then making the untranslatable label "2023Appraisal_for_<SpecialChar.NewLine>Employee.Name.PreferredFirstAndLastName".

Thanks Michael, that's a great suggestion as well. Have you ever found a way to add a new line char inline without adding an additional field?
