Yep, that's it - make sure to "force" line wrapping, else it won't work. Decrease the width of your screen to such extent that formatting will occur - it's a known "feature"

Same story: when all items fit, no formatting is done; only when e.g. wrapping should occur. BTW decreasing your width to an extent where wrapping will occur sometimes will result in wrapping. However, it's my experience, that there's a "sensitive" zone, where formatting will, but wrapping will not occur. Good luck!
