</div></div>Hi Alexandre,<br>
<br>
What do you mean by "break line characters", to you mean "<br/>" in<br>
html? Or "\n" aka normal linebreaks in a string?<br>
<br>
Because I think the second one are indeed ignored IF the text area will<br>
become html (not always used).<br>
<br>
In the first case I think the only way to know is to have a look into<br>
the dialog/widget that the text is part of. I could think about an<br>
option that a dev wants to add some whitespace or newlines in between<br>
two chunks of text.<br>
<br>
Sorry I do not have a clearer answer, maybe somebody else can?<br>
Maybe better ask this on the dev list, because those are the people who<br>
write the actual source strings...<br>
<br>
