We're facing a bit of a challenge trying to display multi-line comments captured in a Vizlib Writeback table within a standard Vizlib table.
Here's the situation:
We have user comments being entered into a Vizlib Writeback table. These comments can span multiple lines (using line breaks within the writeback field).
When we simply add the comment field from the Writeback table to a regular Vizlib table, all the lines get squashed into a single, long sentence, making it really hard to read.
We've considered a couple of workarounds, but neither feels ideal:
Direct Field Inclusion: As mentioned, this results in the dreaded "wall of text." 😫
Using a Separator Character ("|"): While this technically works to delineate comments, it's not user-friendly. People might forget to add the separator, leading to data integrity issues. Plus, it would require extra scripting or a separate table to properly parse and display the comments in a readable stacked format. ⚙️
So, our question for the brilliant minds here is: Is there a way to display these multi-line comments from the Vizlib Writeback table in a standard Vizlib table with the line breaks preserved (i.e., stacked on separate lines) without relying on users to manually input a separator character?
We're open to any suggestions or insights you might have! Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏
