Labels and Carriage Return Issue

[itsmeqp]

I use to be able to have Carriage Returns in Labels by using the Char function:

"Line 1" & Char(13) & "Line 2"

Which would look like:

Line 1
Line 2

Now the label just appears as a single line with the Carriage Return omitted:

Line 1Line 2

With the latest PowerApps release, it appears labels no longer support the use of Char(13)? Multiline is still supported when I try (which is awful to deal with in the Formula Bar):

"Line 1" & "
" & "Line 2"

Hi @itsmeqp ,

Based on the issue that you mentioned, I have made a test, and the issue is confirmed on my side. I think this issue is related to the updates of PowerApps.

As an alternative solution, I think the Char(10) function could achieve your needs. Please take a try with the following workaround:

Set the Text property of the Label control to following:

"Line 1" & Char(10) & "Line 2"

Please take a try with above solution, then check if the issue is solved.

Same problem. Char(13) and Char(10) no longer functioning [ie no Line Break/Carriage Return] on an app first published many month ago.

Labels used to have multiple lines of text, but are now on one line.

It is NOT a solution. Using Char (10) does not work, nor does Char (13). See images.

Powerapps Release: 3.19062.20

Update - to clarify:

Using Buttons - Char (10) [Line Feed] and Char (13) [Carriage Return] no longer work.

Using Labels - Char (10) does produce a new line.

However, this now requires re-visiting multiple buttons & labels.

Feel my non-happiness......

I don't believe this solution works for the Text control in buttons:

"Line 1" & "
" & "Line 2"

At least I wasn't able to make it work.

@v-xida-msftThe workaround achieves my needs, but I agree with the other users that this is not a solution. Is there any intent of having this resolved?
