Line break in .properties file

[bjorn-henrik_zink]

Hi,

can anyone help me how to add a line break in a .properties file property? After investigating a bit on the web, I have tried \n \\n <br> </br> <br/>, but none of them work. 

More specifically, I am writing a help text for my application and need several paragraphs of text. Instead of creating a property for each paragraph I would like to use line break.

Thanks!

Did you try using the unicode character \u000d

The control your using could also effect this.

Hi Jamie and Jun,

but of course, you are both right, it was the type of control that did the trick. Using a proper control - like for example Text - \n worked just fine.

Thanks to you both for swift replies!

for long paragraph, just use \ at the end of the line.
