Is there any Wrap text (text in 2 or more lines for IO field)possible for I/O field input/output in TIA portal V15.0?

I have checked old posts on this subject and make a query for a reliable answer.

Requirement:A string(wstring) input that is description of a device  entered by operator through HMI and stored in PLC data block in one tag.

Then display this string to same IO field as output. The total character length of the string may be 25 or more hence I need to display this output in three line with the same IO field. 

Thanks in Advance

Hello James,

not is not possible with an I/O field.

You can use three I/O fields linked to internal tags and when changing one of them concatenate them and write to the required tag. Additionally you may use a special character for the position of wrapping the text.
