Formatting in a trello report - how to get spaces put in!

Simon Pidduck February 8, 2020

Hi,

I have a trello status report working nicely - except for the formatting

I get

  • Base Data Allocated To: Bill Gates Due On: February 15, 2020

From pattern

- {cardname} Allocated To: {{%Customer Resource}} Due On: {cardduedate}

How do I introduce spaces to get something like

  • Base Data           Allocated To: Bill Gates            Due On: February 15, 2020

The report is great but without the spaces it looks all scrunched up and hard to read.

Thanks for any assistance here!

Hi

Have you try to use a not defined variable many times as necessary. For example : {space}{space}{space}

If it doesn't work. You can use \n. the sequence \n means 'new line', and to introduce a paragraph break in markdown, it needs to be entered twice in a row. The user interface automatically converts your carriage returns into these when you enter the command.

Maybe an another alternativ by using markdown syntax :

Hi Ludo,

I'm not quite there with this...

I have defined a variable  

From pattern

- {cardname} Allocated To: {{%Customer Resource}} Due On: {cardduedate}

In the output I want to introduce spaces....several after the cardname, several after Customer Resource.

I just can't seem to see how to the spaces in.

{space} in the pattern seems to do nothing.

I know there is something im missing here but I just cant see it.

Thanks for your help but I am still pretty stumped here!
