publish version with description on multiple lines

[Remus Avram 54]

Hi,

how can I publish a version with a description on multiple lines via ftrack api?

I tried:

description = "Test \n test"

But in the Ftrack Web interface is displaying: "Test test"

Cheers,

Remus

Hi Remus,

Thanks for reaching out.

There is currently no support for formatting version description/comments. We plan to move to markdown for task and version descriptions in the future.

Regards,
Lucas

Have you tried double symbol for new line? The web interface text fields don't create a new line after single "Enter" but after double. Try this:

description = "Test \n\n test"

yes, and it displays :

"Test  test"

We've been waiting on this for a while now. Do you have an expected date of when this will happen?
