List view options for field with multiple values

For a field with multiple values, Is there a way to separate the values by newline rather than by comma in a list view?

OK. Thanks for the information Cheryl.



In this example, the field is a list of Readers (referencing User (sys_user) table).


Just so I'm clear... you have a field that is displayed on the form like this:



Readers: John Doe, Jane Smith, George Washington



and displayed on the list like this



John Doe


Jane Smith


George Washington



Is that assumption correct?


Yes.   Sorry for the delay in response... I got distracted with another, more pressing issue (or 2 or 3 or 4!)


Yes, that assumption is correction.   I am hoping to display the list of names in a column (list view) as you have displayed above, one name per line.


Thanks!


Hi Cheryl,



A list field won't display the way you want. It's going to display the way it does in the form (as comma separated values.) Even if you created a second text field with the string (display) values of those in the list field, it is still going to place them side by side and wrap on spaces.



I was not able to come up with a clean way to show values as one per line in a list.
