What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Use Shape "HTML Texts" from Sketchy GUI Collection 2. Try to write text in more than one line
What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I would expect that I can enter "New Line" to enter multiple lines of text. I would expect that I can change shape size if I write long text.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Windows Client Version 1.2 build 0
Please provide any additional information below. I have the same problem with the shape "HTML Texts" of Collecion "Basic Web Elements"

Posted on Nov 27, 2010 by Happy PandaI have the same problem on Linux (Ubuntu 10.10) and pencil 1.2 build 0 (using firefox)
I can paste multi-line input but I can not add newlines in the text.

Posted on Nov 29, 2010 by Quick Pandain fact, you can add newlines:
enter = apply text and close editor shift+enter = add newline and continue editing text

Posted on Apr 5, 2012 by Massive GiraffeIt seems to me that CTRL+Enter would be standard for this?

Posted on Apr 15, 2012 by Massive RabbitI had the same problem, and thought of sending it here, luckily now I know current logic to do multiple lines.
My suggestion is just to use just Enter for multiple lines. If user wants to end editing text field he can click of to somewhere else. I believe this logic is been used in many different softwares CS, Paint, ect.

Posted on Jan 20, 2014 by Massive RhinoAll combination of keys I tried (SHIFT+ENTER, COMMAND+ENTER, ALT+ENTER, CTRL+ENTER...) do not work for me in a Macbook Air with Mac OS X 10.7.5, and Pencil 2.0.5.
I hope you can fix this, as multi-line texts are pretty important for the usage I want to give Pencil.

Posted on Jan 29, 2014 by Happy ElephantHello everyone,
I am currently using Pencil 2.0.6 in a MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.9.1 and I have been able to introduce several lines within a text.
I used a "Rich text" object and to add a new line I pushed SHIFT+RETURN.
I hope this helps you.
Regards,
Marcos

Devs: Great tool, I have spent 2 hours looking for a way to get text box with multi-line text in android collection.
Now am using something called a Desktop Sketchy Box with Shift-Enter for line feed.
Please fix this.

Posted on Mar 8, 2015 by Massive MonkeyI'm using Pencil 2.0.6 on Mac OS X 10.9.5 and what worked best for me was to insert "HTML Texts (Desktop - Sketchy GUI Collection)" or "Rich Text (Common Shapes Collection)" object and after, edit the object and use Shitf+Enter to add lines.

Posted on Apr 15, 2015 by Swift RhinoI am using Pencil 2.0.5 on Windows 8.1. I am unable to add newlines. When I bring up the text editor and press [Shift] + [Enter], it shows a newline is added but when I hit enter and the canvas is shown again, The newline will be nowhere to be found.
Great tool though!
