Wrap text in drop down menu

[adriansa1366887]

Is a way I can wrap the text so it can be fully read. Each menu option might be long as it is for narration purposes

Yes, but it's not a good idea. The text in drop-downs must be a single line for them to work correctly.
You need to think of another solution to this problem.

The other solution can be the code that I used to wrap manually my text. See sample here under

Here the result compared with the wrap text

This is a pretty old post. And I can't seem to get the "\r" to work. I'm surprised Adobe hasn't provided a solution for this. Anyone else have any luck?

You need to use "\n", actually. I don't know what the above post is referring to.

Here's the basic code that does it:

this.getField("Dropdown1").setItems(["Item 1", "Item 2\nLine 2 of Item 2", "Item 3"]);

You'll see for yourself that it doesn't work very well, unless all values have the same number of lines in them.
