Hello,
Is there a way to achieve line breaks in tables?
For exemple, I want to override the column header text and in the field "Column Header" ctrl + enter does not work to break lines.
I also tried using a rectangle template but the text entered in it does not show up.
Any Ideas?
In the properties box goto TextProperties=>Format and select Line-Break for the cell. Then youn should be able to do ctrl-enter to get multiple lines.
Cannot find it in the text propreties of the table element. Could you show exactly where it is? Are you using a template or not?
Each column has its own properties. You may need to check the "Use Template" box to enable full property edits.
Ok, I see you are doing this in a Rectangle element. I am trying to do this in a Table element. This option is not there in the Table.
Maybe it is possible to do it using a Rectangle template inside a Table but when I tried, it would not show the text at all.
This kind of works... But then, the template is applied to the whole column. So you don't get the different colored rows anymore.
I think I will just uncheck "Show Column Header" and just manually write it myself on top of each column. Unless there is a better way.
