carriage return

Hi there
I know this has been discussed before but it was at least two years ago (https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-online/carriage-return-entered-in-essay-is-not-carried-over-in-lms-report) and I was wondering if there has been any change or new workaround that people have come across. How can I make a carriage return appear in the html report? Multi- checkbox selections show in one long string. Carriage returns in an essay question will display from a variable text field on another slide but not in the html report. Is there anything I can do to make this happen?
Thanks for any insight!

Hi, Mary-Lynne -- Would you be able to provide your file so that we can test it in the SCORM Cloud?
Hi there
I've not looked at it in an LMS, but the Print Report shows that carriage returns aren't appearing in the saved text. Here is a link to a sample file online: www.hilightlearning.ca/Carriage_return_sample/story.html
I've attached the source file too.
Thanks for having a look!

Hi, Mary-Lynne -
Thank you for sharing your file and for the link. I was able to take a look, and the file is working as designed. The variable reference does include the carriage return, and it is not reflected in the print results. If you would like to see the print results behavior changed, please submit a feature request.
I'm surprised you made go through all these hoops to prepare a file for you to look at it, when you could have stated this based on the information in my original post. "How can I make a carriage return appear in the html report? " - "You can't"
Hi, Mary-Lynne --
Apologies for any inconvenience, but we commonly ask to see files to make sure there isn’t something more going on that is causing or contributing to an issue. Thank you for your input and your participation in the community.
