Table Cell Values

DocJ

Hi,
I know I can use line breaks in the Display Text behavior using \n, but when I tried that in my table it didn't work. I assume it's because the cells are just holding places for whatever I type in there. I searched and read on this subject further, but didn't find anything pertaining to this.
Is there any way to have the text in a table cell to include a line break?
Thanks for your help
Doc

In your table cell use Option + Return for you line breaks.

Edit: I just tested it and \n and \r seem to work just fine too.

This would help a lot with selecting long pieces of dialogue from a table.
Nice one, @jamie_c

@jamie_c thanks. I'll have to try that again when I get home. Hopefully I wasn't using the slash the wrong way
:-)

I noticed you mentioned an Option button. Is that on a Mac?

@DocJ, Option is a Mac thing, I think it is the Alt button on a PC but I'm not 100% sure.

@jamie_c . Since my program doesn't seem to work on my laptop that runs Windows 8, I'll have to wait until I get to my desk tomorrow ( that one runs Windows 7 ). That wastes more time than anything

Ok....figure out what I was doing wrong. I was using a Forward slash instead of a Back slash. Duh!
Thanks again @jamie_c

Damn slashes!

Glad you got it working.
