Question

Is it possible to enter multiple lines of text onto an object (button, label, fader, etc.) in Paradigm ControlDesigner?

Answer

Yes! In the "Text" property of the objects property editor multiple lines of text can be created for the control by pressing [Shift]+[Enter] on your keyboard. After committing the text, the line return will be represented in the property field with a "\n" character.

This is also useful for creating a vertical label on a button. Simply enter one character each after using [Shift]+[Enter].
