Possible to have formatting in the "Show Notification" popup?

Are you using our SaaS platform (Baserow.io) or self-hosting Baserow?

Self-hosted

If you are self-hosting, what version of Baserow are you running?

version 2.1

If you are self-hosting, which installation method do you use to run Baserow?

Running in Docker

What are the exact steps to reproduce this issue?

Is it possible to have any formatting in the “Show Notification” popup? I really just want to be able to have new lines, but can’t seem to find any way to make that happen. Thanks in advance.

In the notification field itself (currently) no formatting is possible.

If you however refer to a textfield with markdown enabled, you should be able to add formatting.

Thanks! That’s a good enough work-around. I’ll give it a go.

Hi David. I don’t think it works even when rich formatting is enabled (is that what you meant by markdown?)

I have a text field with “Enable rich text formatting” ticked. In the App Builder, if I create a text box with Markdown format, the formatting appears (new lines etc). However, if I create a Notification referencing the same filed, there is no formatting (no line spaces etc).

Is this perhaps something that could be added to the “nice to have” list for the future?
