Line break in a DialogBox

[Simon]

Can anyone tell me how to put a line break in a static text component within a dialogbox design?

The static text component allows multiple lines because it wraps with proper text justification according to settings chosen, but I can't get a line break in. Pressing control and enter whilst editing doesn't work; using codes like /n or \n doesn't do anything. I tried pasting in text from a text editor with line breaks but it only accepted the first line.

Anyone got any ideas?

1. Make a new application which contains a singe-line edit box
2. At start of frame set the edit box to NewLine$ .
3. Run the application.
4. Copy the second character
5. Paste that character into the dialogue object input box

I found another bug in the Edit Control for the Dialog Box object: You can only make newlines when pressing 'enter' if you hold 'control' down on the same time.

thanks, that worked a treat. I take it that was an LF character... surely there is a better way to do this though??

Anyway, cheers again <img src="/center/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
