We are trying to create Release notes in Confluence for our business folks, based on the detailed descriptions we capture on our parent issues in Jira, by using the Release notes template. We are creating full descriptions in Jira, several paragraphs long. All the text is coming through, but it is only wrapping at hard returns, keeping all the text in a paragraph on a single line. This is causing the release notes not to be a nice, single read page, but rather gives us a table where users are forced to scroll. We would like to export to PDF or Word, but unfortunately this is also not working, due to the width of the table on the page. Is there a way to force the wrapping of the text? It seems to work fine for the Summary field, but not for the Description field.
Any steer on how to resolve this would be much appreciated :)
Thank you.
Hi @Karin van Driel ,
This could be related to the Feature Request https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-77070
The issues show up in new Jira issues macro.

@Vinod Reddy ,
Actually, we are using the Legacy macro, is there a way to make the description wrap in the legacy macro?

Hi @Karin van Driel , can you please mention whch confluence macro you are using? And I baelive the Jira field where you store release notes description is a custom multi-line field, right?

Sorry @Sujeet Pathak , I didn't see your message. The macro is the Legacy Jira macro and the description is just in the standard Jira Description field.
