Try to insert between the lines of a text block with a very long string of spaces. Set the Text Input properties: width=200, height=200, multiline = true, editable = false.

![lib_newline](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/6/d/6d15fd3fda5384c2a91fc35f477b3423d4d6d2af.png)

Does this method work for everyone?

I think this is even a problem in Swift. I think there should be a friendlier solution…

Also, if you need to give multiple line breaks, you should add the _invisible character_ - “⠀” (between quotes; copy it) before the spaces. This is because more spaces than sufficient still equate to a single line change.
