Wrap long text string in a frame?

Add-ons UIs

#1

I have a xslt transformation for my weather binding which can produce text strings which extend well past the frame bounds.

Is there any way to make the frame height scale up and have the text wrap so it still fits within the width of the frame as defined by my window? Examples of the current situation are below:

Narrow - no wrap 2.JPG969×562 40.9 KB

Narrow - no wrap.JPG688×670 38.4 KB

Narrow - two line wrap.JPG819×735 27.6 KB

Wide - no wrap.JPG1780×414 46.1 KB

The frame title can wrap nicely, but the height doesn’t change (not a big deal as the text string is very rarely longer than two lines wide), but the item frame never wraps and only pushes the text off the screen (including the title of the frame).

I’d suggest that you enter an issue for the Basic UI at https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/issues.

Thanks, have now done so.

I’ve done some searching and I can’t find where this might have been fixed. Any thought on how to prevent the text from cutting off?

Hello,
is there already a solution to this? On my sitemap only a part of a string is shown, but I want to show the whole text. Does anyone know another solution to this problem?

Thank you!
