Multi-line text in the Geo Text Comp

Is there a plan for having multi-line text in the Geo Text Comp, or allowing embedded line breaks? Perhaps I’m missing a setting. Thanks.

Hey @ctedin,

if you are referencing a Text DAT in the “text” parameter of the Geo Text COMP it will allow for multiple lines to be displayed

You can also set the Text field to Expression mode, and in your python string there the embeded \n line breaks will get parsed
