Is there a way to get text spaces (after a hard return) inside a Note to take affect?

This may be an enhancement request. Please let me know your thoughts on this.

We are trying to force the content of a “Note” in Process Manager to avoid wrapping text for long sentences. The hard return (“shift” + “enter”) forces the text onto the next row just fine, however, when also adding “spaces” after the hard return, the system ignores the spaces and wraps the text.

Said another way: While in “edit” mode inside a “Note” what you see is Not what you get (when in view mode). In other words, the text wraps in view mode even though it “appears” differently in edit mode (spacing looks how we want).  See images. One (with a vertical line on Left) shows “edit” mode appearance, and the other image shows in “view” mode while opening “Note” in “Map”.

Reason for doing this is to create a workaround that will make lists appear in a more readable format for the users of the process. Yes, we could create the list in an attachment, but prefer to keep the info in a “Note” that is nicely formatted if possible. Make sense? 🤓

@ElenaWest right now the Notes field is just a straight text field so it doesn’t support diplaying cariage returns. We’re looking to modernize this to support rich text in the near future.
