I have a SharePoint List with several multiple lines of text fields and noticed that when I am in the list view, these fields wrap:

However, once I add this list view to a Modern Page using the List web part, these fields no longer wrap:

Using JSON to wrap these columns will not work because it displays all the html:

Is there a way to get these fields to wrap on the Modern Pages?

    Hi Dianne Guggenmos,

    Per my test, I would like to suggest you try the steps as below to see the outcomes:

    Click Edit in in the upper right of the site page -> Add a new web part in column one -> input list in the Search box -> Select List properties -> just click X in the upper right of the List Properties panel -> click Republish. Then the wrapped contents in the list should entirely show.

    Have a try and let me know the result.

    Best Regards,

    Hugo
