    Hi Chapin4u,

    After research, we can not add line break in text directly, because Power BI always strips line breaks out of text when it gets loaded into the Data Model. unichar function returns the Unicode character that is referenced by the given numeric value. unichar(10) return a unicode in your measure, and it is recognised by a text. So it is not working for you. As I tested, unichar(10) returns nothing. What's your expected result? Please review more details about UNICHAR in this blog.

    Best Regards,
    Angelia
