How to append New Line Character in a field value
Even though I add a new line character '\n' for the text in the field value all the text is appearing in the same line. Is there a way to add line break in the filed value?
I tried to use \r\n, <br> also but of no use.
Is there a way to implement it. Please advise?

Hi Rajashekhar,
To add a line break, please add </br> after each word for e.g:
asd </br>
sds </br>
sds </br>
dsdsd </br>
This will add a new line to the filed value.

Hi, We could see the line break happening with </br> in the latest version so would like to know what version of Pega you are using. Also could you make sure that the field value you are calling is getting resolved correctly to the one you wanted with </br>.

Hi Chitra,
I have tried the above approach in version 7.3.1 and it did not work. Can you please know in which version did it work for you?

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Could you try giving the tag in "" and check what values you get in screen?

We have the same requirement to add line breaks to FV but it does not work.
I have to display a text of some 8-10 lines (which contains line breaks) along with a checkbox (Terms and Conditions sort of).
The alignment goes off if i try using a paragraph along with a checkbox within a layout. Wanted to try using FV but read it help that FV does not allow "br,/n" tags.
Did any one get through this?

Yes we can use </BR> in the field value, the results are as expected. It worked in 7.3.1 version.It forms a new line after the tag.
