My code here lags out the entire screen and doesn’t work. The screen initially appears and then disappears.  
What can I do to add a new line?

As workaround, you could remove new line block and use a text block with this inside: \n

Thank you for fixing this bug, but I still cannot centre-align individual lines of rich text in one text box, as they act like one individual entity. Please provide guidance on how this can be done.

I’ve tried that before, it didn’t work out well for me…
