Hi all, 

We (rightly or potentially wrongly) ask multiple questions in the “question” field on tasks in some of our processes , has anyone found a way to force a line break for the detail? 

Just reading all the questions in one long sentence looks rubbish! 

Thanks in advance :-)

Hi There, 

 

Yes you can use <br> when its contained between “ “ to generate a line break. EG 

“Hello<BR>world” will show as 

Hello

world

 

So when used with custom fields it can look something like this: 

“Hi there, please complete action for “+ $new.parentEvent.affectedUser.name + “.<br>They are a new starter” would show as

Hi there, please complete action for Kevin Morum.

They are a new starter

 

I hope this helps 

Kevin

Just curious:
Can we introduce some basic HTML formatting using these double quotes syntax ?
I mean such as <em>,<i>, <b>, <strong> , <u>, tags etc… ?
(p.s. I know some of these tags have been deprecated in HTML5)

The short answers is yes, you can include html formatting in task expressions, including href tags for UL links.
