Hello!

Using v1.x.

I thought I could put \r\n into my strings to lay them out, but it seems not to be working.

E.g.

<String Id="ResumeDlgDescription">Installing [ProductName]. \r\n\r\nPlease click Install to continue.</String>

Problem:
The "\r\n\r\n" is showing up on the installer UI....

How can I do this?

Thanks!!!

Instead of using escape sequences, insert actual newlines direcly into the string, like so:
<String Id="ResumeDlgDescription">Installing [ProductName].

Please click Install to continue.</String>

(If you're doing this in the dialog editor, you can just press the Enter key to insert the newlines directly into the text...)
