HMTL text formatting doesn't work if power table cell is word wrapped

Ignition

Background : previous forum post

I've got a table that shows user-entered and system-generated notes associated with a downtime event. Client's requested to make system-generated text bold and leave user-entered text non-formatted for easy distinction. Using html tags show up in plain text due to word wrap being enabled on the cell.

Is this a "one or the other" type scenario or is there something I can do to have the best of both worlds.
Thanks

This is not the most efficient implementation (the renderer should be created and cached in initialize), but it proves the concept:

def configureCell(self, value, textValue, selected, rowIndex, colIndex, colName, rowView, colView):
	if colName == "String Column":
		from com.jidesoft.grid import StyledTableCellRenderer
		from com.jidesoft.swing import StyledLabelBuilder
		
		renderer = StyledTableCellRenderer()
		StyledLabelBuilder.setStyledText(renderer, textValue)
		renderer.lineWrap = True
		return {'renderer': renderer}

StyledLabel/StyledTableCellRenderer support their own special markup format:
