How to get text in new line using data cards

[Anonymous]

Hello all,

Is there anything like forcefully getting values into new line..

Per suppose i have 4 sales type of values.
I would like to show each sales type and their values into 4 lines..

we have something like wordwrap but it wont work for all the time.

Do we have unichar no for braking line and getting values into newline.

Any help

Hi Mohan,

Since the Power BI July update there is support for the UNICHAR that represent a new line:

Measure with newline = "This is the first line" & UNICHAR(10) & "This is the second line"

Check https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-july-feature-summary-2/ for more info

Hi @Anonymous,

Seems it doesn't work on the card visual yet.. But here is a workaround. It works with a combination of word-wrap and the UNICHAR(10), so measure remains the same.

Use a table or matrix visual, put the measure in and rename the measure in the visual to " " set the outline color to the same as the background, enable word-wrapon values and it is allmost like the card visual. Probably it will be supported in the near future.
