Support of the paragraph character on FMTouch

[dtvconsult]

I have an application where it need to display two items in the same field, one over the other.  Their length can vary.
I create the field with a calculation that includes the FileMaker paragraph character.  The field displays correctly within FileMaker,
but doesn't within FMTouch. 

Does FMTouch support the FileMaker paragraph character?  If not, is there a plan to support it?

Thanks for your help.

I am guessing you have a single line input field, those do not display line breaks. Try to change the height of the field to be over 50px and it should be able to display line breaks.

I'm sorry that I didn't get back to this, but my fields are the correct height.  The problem is that FMTouch doesn't recognize the FileMaker paragraph character.  It may be related to Mac versus Windoz.  FileMaker is running on my Mac.

What is displayed in your FMTouch field when the text spans two lines as you describe?

Do both lines of the calculated text appear on only one line in FMTouch?

Is the second line of text missing entirely?

Is there a strange symbol that appears where the line break would be?

In my layout, I have a 2-line high field.  The field is calculated and the calculation is "Text" & <FM paragraph character> & "Text".
This works in FileMaker.  In FMTouch, the paragraph character seems to be replaced with a space.  The text fails to wrap as desired.
I have had to eliminate the feature in my current version of this application, so I have not checked to see if it still does this in the
version just released (v1.62).  I will try adding it back in and see if it still has this result.

The field is calculated and the calculation is "Text" & <FM paragraph character> & "Text".

The formula should go as

"Text" & "¶" & "Text"

You should have the quotes around the pilcrow (the name of the paragraph symbol).
I mention this in case you forgot them as suggested by the way you wrote your formula in your post.

It appears that FileMaker permits the calc to be entered without the quotes, but I expect that FMTouch is more strict.

I tried placing the pilcrow in quotes and it didn't work.
I'm attaching a PNG showing the field definition, how the field displays in FileMaker (Adv. 11.0v1), and how the field displays in FMTouch (v1.615).

BTW.  I can find no FM docs that state that the pilcrow should be quoted (it is a symbolic constant).  The help docs show it handled the same way as the ampersand.  FM handles it correctly either way.
