showing label on a button object on multiple lines instead one single line

Hi Friends,

Can we show label on a button object on multiple lines instead single line in qlik sense. e.g I have a button below. Can I show "New York" on one line and "New Jersey"  under that on second line. The requirement  is, if we have a long label we should be able to show it on multiple lines for better visibility.

AFAIK its not possible, Its start showing ellipses(...) when it doesn't fit the whole text. I raised one idea in the idea section for the dimension labels, but I know the same behavior persists everywhere and CHR(10)/CHR(13) are ineffective.

Hi Digvijay,

Thanks for responding. Can you please explain how you achieved that via extensions? as I see you have done it for the bar chart in your example above. Can you please explain the process or share code for that? 

Thanks

We use this below extensions developed by @Yianni_Ververis , the code for text wrapping is available in lib folder -

But we use it mostly for nprinting reports, for Dashboards or apps it might not be as responsive as you desire
