Use unichar(10) in custom label to add data in next line

Is there a way to add a unichar(10) in a custom label the same way it works in a measure?

I have a 100% stacked column where I want to add 3 different measures in the data label. I was able to add them separated by a " [" but text is too long for them to be seen in the bars, so I'd like to move the third measure to another line.

I tried adding unichar(10) between measures and works great for example in a data card, but label will still show it as a space

 I have this same issue.  I have created a measure for my Custom label but would like for it to wrap or have a carriage return in between the value and % of total.  I can get the label to show but once I add months, it disappears since the label is large altogether.   Below is how I want it to look (left = Excel) vs what it looks like in Power BI (right).  Just curious if you found a workaround!

Hi Ahmed, this video is really good. I found that in my dataset it worked great for one column of data but then needs a bit more work when additional column/cluster required (e.g. monthly comparison, where column legend previously used), if any further tips there?
Thanks

Update - I realise can add say month/year to X axis as well but not necessarily how want to present the data (i.e. no cluster per se, and spaces between all columns)
