I have a program that uses the ListViewer. I add a list with the blocks in this fashion

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/e/8e341bcc965d6b427acd9f050d9dc7cab934d980.png)

In my program each item will represent a task. I would like to have a list where the text are on two lines in the ListViewer for an Item/task. The first line will describe the task and the second like will give details like a Grouping and Status. Is it possible to split an Items text in a ListViewer over 2 lines within the Item?

Regards,  
Jason

Hi @Jason_Samuels,

At the moment I don’t think you’ll be able to do this, as I don’t know of an escape character to do this.

Could you use some sort of delimiter in your text instead?

How about trying something like this:

Here’s the remix link in case you want to experiment with this yourself: [https://x.thunkable.com/copy/eff5d510394e9c7e3a8db660070f2fc3](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/eff5d510394e9c7e3a8db660070f2fc3) 1. Prepare your two lists Your lists can contain anything you like, and the data can come from users/firebase/localDB/airtable - it’s completely up to you really. [34] 2. Create your variables In this example we’ll use A variable for the c…
