GOAL:

How to make a text widget skip a line?

FIX:

It is not possible for text widgets to skip a line.

The best way to work around the problem is to use multiple text widgets or use an editor widget with its read-only and word-wrap attributes set.

Then in the Main block of the window code after the 'RUN enable_UI' set the editor value. For example:

edEditor:SCREEN-VALUE = "AAAAAA" + CHR(13) + "BBBBB" + CHR(13) + "CCCCCC".

The CHR(13) will insert a carriage return in the text string spreading the string over 3 lines.
