Hi,
is it possible to write a tooltip with line break?
I tried something like that:
myELement.setAttribute("title", "line \n break");
or
myELement.setAttribute("title", "line 
 break");
In a basic Html file title="line 
 break" works fine (in Chrome).

yes, unfortunately it does not work in Vaadin either.
When I inspect the item with chrome the title attribute is the same as in my test Html file … BUT it dont break the line in Vaadin.

Can you try both, to simulate a CRLF? → line break
Also - found in [another related SO post]
(https://stackoverflow.com/a/17172412/3441504 ) - try using the style white-space: pre-line;
Or use <br> tags, while setting the attribute data-html="true" on myElement. found [here]
