Hello, I am designing a project for a company. For each option they can choose from, I display a paragraph or two about what the option will do for them when the mouse hovers over them.

I am using the Paragraph.SetText feature to accomplish this.

In AMS 5, it had a text editor option (by clicking the ... button in the action wizard) so I would not have to worry about escape commands when typing my descriptions. In AMS 6, I cannot find the text editor in the action wizard.

Please let me know if there is a way to do this AMS 6 without using escape commands. I am not a programmer by trade so I enjoyed typing the paragraphs the way I would do in Word and then it would automatically put the escape codes in for me.

thanks to all that reply.

Thanks for the feedback. We will look at that. REF: 11063

In the mean time, if you use the script editor instead of the action wizard you can do multi-line text like this:

strText = [[This
is multi-
line
text!!!]];

Paragraph.SetText("Paragraph1",strText);
