Carriage return in a string defined with an XML layout

[wetneb]

Hi all,

I hope this topic hasn't been already discussed, I searched in the forum and I Read The F***ing Manual before posting here .
I'm using a MultiLineEditbox widget in a window defined by a .layout file. I use the Text property to define a default text, but I don't know how to add a carriage return in this text. I tried with '\n' but it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance for any answer,

Wetneb

press "enter" (or "return") on your F***ing keyboard.

LOL! Yes "Enter" does add a new line. In plain text files '\' does not indicate an escape sequence, it is the ASCII character 92 or '\'.

Yeah, it is actually quite annoying. I had to figure this out myself awhile ago. Also, if you build layouts with the CELayoutEditor it will not save your newlines!!! (at least not with the prev build)
