Insert line breaks in the Bibliography

Based on the following discussion in the Zotero forums, I have tried to insert some line breaks within the Bibliography:
https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/463196/#Comment_463196
From the version proposed in that discussion, I understand that I need to add a "display - block" in the Text formatting part of the macro "title-and-description":
I have tried to reproduce this to understand the process on the Visual CSL Editor: https://editor.citationstyles.org/visualEditor
I have started from a fresh APA 7th edition citation style:
I have tried changing the "display" to "block". After doing that, the page hangs. It does not react for a long time.
After several minutes, it finally reacts again, but nothing has changed in the format of the Bibliography.
Could you help me with this problem?
I'd mainly recommend not starting with APA7, which is multiple times larger than any other style and stretches the visual editor
Thank you. So I have tried now with the citation style "American Physical Society".
I can now change the style without hanging.
When I select the title of an article, I get to the "variable" "title".
Using "display" as "block" does not change anything.
Is it the right parameter to change to move that part to a new line?
I have found two possible problems:
-
you can't mix
second-field-align
in the bibliography settings withdisplay
set on individual elements (because they're doing the same type of things, so the CSL processor doesn't know what you actually want to do)
- You cannot change the
display
settings within agroup
So I just need to remove the second-field-align
in the bibliography settings and ungroup the fields I want to put in a separate line from other things.
Thanks.
