WBS link to/from multiline elements

Question

I try to link a multiline element to another element and I guess the alias is not working correctly.

Test:

**:Teamlead as TLA
Team A;

**:(TLA) Teamlead
Team A; 

**(TLA): Teamlead
Team A;

I tested all variants separately. The first two give a "No such node" when trying to use the alias, the last brings a syntax error.

Do you have any Ideas?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Currently `arrows between WBS elements` is not possible with multiline WBS (:xxx;)

Here is a example using \n, like:

@startwbs
* r
** "Teamlead\nTeam A" as TLA
**(TLB) Teamlead\nTeam B

TLB -> TLA
@endwbs

Regards.

This works pretty well.

Thank you!!

Hello D.,

Thank for the report.

With next release (v1.2025.8), it will be now fixed:

@startwbs
* r
**(TLA):Teamlead
Team A;
**(TLB): Teamlead
Team B;

TLB -> TLA
@endwbs

Enjoy,
Regards,
Th.
