Text Stuff

Hi All

A couple of quick questions.

How do I put a carriage return into a string of text?

Is it possible to use a label element to display multiple lines of text(mail label)?

Thanks

Tommy

Just do something like

var myAddress = '';
myAddress += 'Servoy' + '\n'; // \n is the carriage return
myAddress += 'Servoy street 2' + '\n';
etc.

and put that on a label (for example as a calculation).

This can also be done using html. The following screenshots show detail of how mailing labels and letters can be done in Servoy:

Hopefully, the measurements shown of the screen elements will save others some time. These links had been on the list previously, but were not working for a while. I just put the files back on our server again, so they can be seen.

Thanks Patric k & Westy
