Hi Dears,
How can I do to break a string sent to an svg text field? I'm using dashboard 1.0 with node-red-contrib-ui-svg, and the 'update\_text' command to send the string to the text box. The string always comes out on a single line, leaving the limit of the text box.
Best Regards,
Roberto

You can try css wrap or html pre.
You may want to supply an example of your flow.
