Long text in JSON

Question

Hi,

is there a way to define max width of the text that is rendered from a JSON string so that the text in the Plantuml output would auto wrap? Like in the example below:

json JSON {

  "text": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum."

}

Now awaiting implementation,

Hello B., and all,

With last snapshot (~v1.2022.10beta1) and last online version, we can now use:

@startuml
<style>
map {
  MaximumWidth 300
}
</style>
json JSON {
  "text": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum."
}

Now, you can use `json` style, like:

@startuml
<style>
json {
  MaximumWidth 300
}
</style>
json JSON {
  "text": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat."
}

Enjoy.

Could you also fix to correctly handle line feeds (and probably other symbols like \t, etc.)? It looks that those are now just get ignored
