Line break in Footnote

Hi  all 🙂

I need to include two footnotes in a Bar chart.

I have tried it:

Text & Chr(10) & Text 

but it does not work.

Any idea?

Thanks!
Edi

Hello, did you resolve your question so far?

i have the same problem in breaking line in footnotes now.

the footnotes always aligned in one long line instead. 


@Patrik_Lundblad, Patrick, is it possible? thanks!

Hi

unfortunately I could not find any solution, however by using the following extension you can break lines in footnotes.

I Think is this one. 

Anyway if you register in the website (the link I have sent) you will get access to all extensions.

Hi there!

I realize this is an old thread, but thought I'd share a fairly slick working solution if anyone else comes across the post.

You can solve this with a custom theme and specifically with css overrides.

Step 1. build a boilerplate custom theme.

Step 2. In the css file of the theme, add an override like this:

/*
Enable multi-line footer next line adherence
*/
.qv-object .qv-object-footnote {
    white-space: pre-line;
}

Step 3. Import the theme and apply it in your document.

It should enable line break interpretation in footnotes.

It worked for me anyway in Qlik Sense May 2024.

To understand how to work with custom themes, read:
Custom themes | Qlik Sense for developers Help

... and here's a link to read-up on the CSS property we're manipulating:
CSS white-space property (w3schools.com)

Good luck!
