Hello everyone,

I am looking for a way to wrap the text of a long alarm description so that it can be fully displayed in the Alarm Status Table.

I’m already aware of the HTML breakline method, but in this particular situation, I need to avoid using it because the alarm description is also used in other contexts.

Is there a way to achieve this?  
Thank you all for your help!

Are you talking about the label column? If so, simply preface the description with `<html>` and it will automatically wrap in the status table. However, the row height won't auto resize. That property will have to be set tall enough to accommodate the wrapping.
