Tooltip with Multiple Lines Needed

General Discussion
1

Good afternoon Team,

One more question today. I have read on the forum that to add breaks in a line you need to add at the beginning and
where you want the line break.

It was not very clear for someone like me so I am not sure how to fix this tool tip.

Any help?

"<html>Location Status: + <br>" +
"<html>Aisle: " + {view.params.Aisle} + "<br>" +
"<html>Rack Side: " +{view.params.RackSide} + "<br>" +
"<html>Rack Field: " + {view.params.RackField} + "<br>" +
"<html>Rack Position: " + {view.params.RackPlace} + "<br>" +
"<html>Level: " + {view.params.Level} + "<br>" +
"<html>Depth: " + {view.params.Depth} + "<br>" +
"<html>Bin Status: " + {view.params.Status} + "<br>"

Set the style of the tooltip element to whiteSpace: pre and use literal newlines (\n):

The sample you saw using <html> and <br> was probably for Vision tooltips, not Perspective.

Awesome, thank you so much. Is there a document that describes what all those different things like whiteSpace can do?

Not really. It’s actually a CSS attribute that we’re emitting to the web browser; Ignition doesn’t have anything to do with what it does or not. And there’s a lot of CSS attributes, so trying to document them all is a huge endeavor.

If you’re ever curious about a style attribute, I’d highly recommend the Mozilla Developer Network; e.g. I googled mdn white space and got this: white-space - CSS: Cascading Style Sheets | MDN

what about for a marker on a map. I am trying to get multiple lines there but there is no option for style.
Is there any way I can get this to work that you know of.
Any help would be appreciated.

I am still a bit confused as to where i am supposed to be putting these themes and the white space. Just not clicking with me

yeah in that topic i said the style property in tooltips doesnt seem to work, so you gotta use
css injection or theme.css

9

create a random styleclass
and paste this into the background image

}.leaflet-tooltip{
  white-space: pre
}{

uf yeah they are not properties.
theme.css are css files stored on your igntion folder
injection is injection css in a styleclass.
in the topic i linked above there is a post linking to some more info on these.
