Title: UIBootgrid and newlines
Post by: lattera on July 31, 2020, 08:56:42 pm

I'm populating a UIBootgrid with some data where a column has embedded newline characters. I'd like to effectively turn them into "<br />" tags. What's the best way to do that?

I would suggest a custom formatter which can be passed in at the constructor.

Yup! Thanks for the hint!
