Char (10) function not working

[AliciaDG]

Hi,

I have an app that i am using for team to place their debrief notes for all the events we do. I have created an email function for them to be able to email the notes to themselves. 

I am using the Char(10) function to create lines between each question asked however when i click the send button it just emails the whole debrief note in one paragraph. Except for the last three questions those come out perfectly. Not sure what i am doing wrong. Also how do i code bold into the headings?

code is below

Office365Outlook.SendEmail(TextInput1,"Debrief Notes for: " & ThisItem.Title & "on " & ThisItem.'Date of Event',Concat('DARWIN EVENTS DEBRIEF NOTES',"Please find details below for: " & "Name of Event: " & ThisItem.Title & Char(10) & "Date of Event: " & ThisItem.'Date of Event' & Char(10) & "What worked well? " & ThisItem.'What worked well?' & Char(10) & "What can be improved? " & ThisItem.'What can be improved?' & Char(10) & "What can you add? " & ThisItem.'What can you add?' & Char(10) & "What could you have done without? " & ThisItem.'What could you have done without?' & Char(10) & "Suggestions for next event? " & ThisItem.'Suggestions for the next event?' & Char(10) & Char(10) & "Report entered by: " & ThisItem.'First & Last Name' & Char(10) & "Email address: "&ThisItem.'Email Address' & Char(10) & ThisItem.'What was your role?' & Char(10) & Char(10)))

I use this code to break line in mobile device as well as in laptop for notification purpose.
But it may help you to achieve your goal.

Notify("Record already found on this date."& "<br>" & Char(13) & Char(10)&"Please select any other date !!",NotificationType.Error)

Thanks @sayyed007amir  where did you put that code in the powerapp itself? at the end of the code already created?

I used it on OnChange of Date picker, but you can use OnSelect of button and wherever you want to use for any action.

Hi @AliciaDG :

I've made a test but it worked well on my side ——

My formula:

Office365Outlook.SendEmail(User().Email,"Subject","A"&Char(10)&"B"&Char(10)&"C")

The Result:

I have two alternatives just for you to try:

Solution1:Replace Char(10) with Char(13)

Solution2:Use html tags to control line wrapping,the formula should be:

Office365Outlook.SendEmail(
   TextInput1,
   "Debrief Notes for: " & ThisItem.Title & "on " & ThisItem.'Date of Event',
   Concat('DARWIN EVENTS DEBRIEF NOTES',"Please find details below for: " & "Name of Event: " & ThisItem.Title & "</br>" & "Date of Event: " & ThisItem.'Date of Event' & "</br>" & "What worked well? " & ThisItem.'What worked well?' & "</br>" & "What can be improved? " & ThisItem.'What can be improved?' & "</br>" & "What can you add? " & ThisItem.'What can you add?' & "</br>" & "What could you have done without? " & ThisItem.'What could you have done without?' & "</br>" & "Suggestions for next event? " & ThisItem.'Suggestions for the next event?' & "</br>" & "</br>" & "Report entered by: " & ThisItem.'First & Last Name' & "</br>" & "Email address: "&ThisItem.'Email Address' & "</br>" & ThisItem.'What was your role?' & "</br>" & "</br>"),
   {IsHtml:true}
   
)

Best Regards,
