Line break in Label #322
Comments
NB: I wonder if this is all part of #168 |
Currently you cannot insert line breaks into labels. I haven't seen this idea before, so I also don't think it's currently planned for #168. However, of course we can think about it and maybe implement it at some time, if it makes sense for some use cases. I'm not quite sure what your use case is. How are you planning to use your book with an AAC user? If it's about interacting with the story, maybe it makes sense to create a separate element for each sentence?! Or if it's about "reading" the book, maybe you could just insert a picture without text with a background action to speak custom text which is the text of the current page?! |
The book is both an example and template of a real communication book for an adult - non-literate - user We want to publish it as a free resource for therapists and families as a guide. We will create a case study to go alongside it e.g
As much as the book is standalone - a therapist can use it as inspiration - it would make sense for therapists to edit it. That front page is just a big block of text. It could be in a different style (it was made in communicate in Print) - but multi-line text is the key on that page. The workaround as far as I can tell is pop it in a image - but that makes the editing not so easy to do. So to clarify - its for communication partners. It would be a printed book - not an online communication tool. (well, not primarily). |
Ah, ok, thanks for explaining! I understand the point, but I think it's a quite rare usecase. I have no problem of adding the possibility somewhen, but as long as there aren't more developers, I assume it will take some time, since there are many other issues pending that are more important for a communication app. But yes, maybe some hidden function could be implemented along with #168, where e.g. it's possible to add line breaks within |
Yeah - granted - I don't think its a top priority. I do think the only use cases is when the primary target of grid is for a pdf.. On-screen its all fine. |
Hi
I'm trying to replicate the attached book in asterics. The first page, I'm having difficulty as I can't line break in the label.. Or can I already do this?
