Multi-Line Data In Schedules

[Joe_Carrick]

After creating some "Multi-Line Text" using a Ruby Macro, I thought I'd see what would happen if I put that into a Component Field for an Item in a Schedule.

 

Amazingly, the Multi-Line Text is displayed in the Schedule and it pushes all the subsequent lines down so that it fits.  The grid lines of the schedule need to be suppressed, but it proves that Schedules could have Multi-Line Text.  Even more importantly it proves to me that I could actually build a Full Schedule with Word Wrap and Multiple Lines of Data per Schedule Item.just using Ruby Macros.  By coupling that with a Rich Text Box it's possible to create some really nice looking Schedules.

 

Don't get me wrong, It's a large task.  But, it's possible.
