New Bug Encountered: Line breaks are again not being honored in display of LongText fields

DIM (Dynamic Indicator Maker) SVG Images Tips & Tricks 💡

DIM (Dynamic Indicator Maker) Hey everyone! I created a new tool that creates fancy SVG based indicators that dynamically update based on an assigned percent complete column in your app. [image] SVG stands for Scaleable Vector Graphics and these file types are special in that they are infinitely scaleable. Instead of being made of pixels like a regular image type, they are made from vectors, rays, circles, paths, etc so you can make the image as large (or small) as you need and the device wil…

Did we ever get anywhere with this?  Seems to still be an issue.

The only thing I would add is that it works if the card view is displayed as an inline view within a detail view
