Multi-line strings in a power table

Ignition
1

If a string in a database field contains line feed characters, is there any way of displaying this as a multi-line string in a power table?

I’d try overriding the column’s renderer to yield a suitable JTextArea instead of a JLabel. Might need to play with row heights.

If you set the wrap text attribute in the column attributes dataset we switch to rendering using a MultilineTableCellRenderer which I would expect to display newlines correctly.

Thanks Paul, that does exactly what I wanted.
