Text Wrapping is not working.

Hi,

I've created a new sheet and a form, I've applied text wrap to the columns that might need it and I've tested certain cells, inputting more text than the cell than would be visible. I've clicked an unclicked the text wrap button on the menu... nothing is happening. I've saved and refreshed the sheet...still no text wrap.

Can you help? I've also tried adding in Ctrl+enter to add a new line of text. Does nothing.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Dear Andrée Starå<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

Thank you so much for your solution!<\/p>

It can work, but more like a compromise way. Editing on a report is less convenient.<\/p>

It would be better for me to set access right to each column.<\/p>

But that can also work for now, thanks a lot.<\/p>

By the way are you a BOT?<\/p>"},{"commentID":383283,"body":"
