Any workaround to not display HTML tag onscreen?

[MarkSa18]

Hello community,

I use the following valuexpression in my groupings to help make report output (PDF) read better. Unfortunately it displays the actual <br> tag onscreen. My understanding is this is because of the way WF renders to HTML. Is there a workaround to not display the <br> onscreen but continue to render as carriage return in pdf output?

group.0.valueexpression=CONCAT({project}.{description},"<br>","Launch: ",{project}.{plannedCompletionDate},"<br>","PM: ",{project}.{owner}.{name})

group.0.valueformat=HTML

Any feedback is appreciated. I am assuming I can have one or the other but not both.

Best,

Mark

Mark, you're correct in your assumptions, there is not a workaround for this on the reporting (visual/onscreen) part, any html tags you put in will show in the reporting.  I think this could be a good item to submit an idea, I'd vote for it 🙂
