Hi,

Let me question how to wrap text in Verse,
I wrote the following code to show text inside widget:

AddWidget(Agent : agent, Title : string, Msg : string) : void=
        if:
            Player := player[Agent]
            PlayerUI := GetPlayerUI[Player]
        then:
            MessageWidget := CreateWidget(Title, Msg)
            InputMode := player_ui_slot:
                InputMode := ui_input_mode.All
            PlayerUI.AddWidget(MessageWidget, InputMode)
            if:
                set widgetMap[Player] = MessageWidget
                              

    CreateWidget(Title : string, Msg : string) : canvas=
        var btn : button_quiet = button_quiet{DefaultText := StringToMessage("CLOSE")}
        btn.OnClick().Subscribe(RemoveWidget)
	....
                       
                canvas_slot:
                    Anchors := anchors{Minimum := vector2{X := 0.5, Y := 0.5}, Maximum := vector2{X := 0.5, Y := 0.5}}
                    Offsets := margin{Left := -900.0, Top := 195.0, Right := 500.0, Bottom := 210.0}
                    Alignment := vector2{X := 0.0, Y := 0.0}
                    SizeToContent := false
                    Widget := text_block:
                        DefaultText := StringToMessage(Title)
                        DefaultTextColor :=  NamedColors.White
	.....

        return MessageWidget

However, the text is sticked out of the widget.

How shoud I do to wrap text to fit into the widget?
(Using “\n” for each sentence takes much time. So, I would like to know whether text can be wrap automatically setting “text_block”)

Regards

Would love to know if this is possible

Unfortunately, this does not seem possible yet, as the only overflow policies we expose in text_block are Clip and Ellipsis.

I’ll see if I can get an internal ticket made for this. Thank you!
