[SOLVED] How to wrap a radio button label

Hello Confused

I have an html page(built in the composer) that contains a radio button and the label needs to be wrapped. Can anyone assist with that?

Background:
I have a training application that, in some courses, has a final assessment involving various test pages (multiple choice, true/false and/or choose the correct answer). I have run into a situation where some option/answer labels are very lengthy and would like to add a wrap option within the radio button control.

I have looked into the properties and don’t see a setting that will do this.

Has anyone out there come across this issue? If so, could you share your expertise?

Thanks!

The property you're looking for is white-space: normal;
Apply that to the radio button label (not the div)

Hi Wep5622

Thanks for responding to my post!

Any thoughts or recommendation as to any docs I could read to better understand the various, and endless Properties, related to the html composer or styling in general?

I have created several new pages and when I add the radio button control, the only options for it in the properties listing dropdown is (the radio 1 DIV).

Maybe there's a setting somewhere that needs to be changed?

Scratch that last post...The issue is that I am attempting to populate the radio button dynamically.

Your post worked perfectly as suggested and I can add that skill to my toolbox.

Now I just need to see if this can be done dynamically.

Thanks again!

Most of these properties directly relate to CSS style properties, for which there are plenty of resources on the internet.

Another great help is to look at style properties of existing HTML in your launch pages using the Inspect Element tool in your web browser (even IE has that, but it's a bit lacking).

For doing this dynamically, the easiest approach is probably to create a new CSS stylesheet (or modify an existing one) and include that from the document settings tab in Composer.
Something like this:
.IBI_Radio label { white-space: normal !important; }


Perhaps the !important flag isn't even necessary, in which case it's better to leave it out or you won't ever be able to override it for specific situations.
