    Multiple lines in a status dialog window?

    I have a status dialog window, and newlines are getting truncated.

    StatusDlg.SetMessage("test1\ntest2");

    or

    StatusDlg.SetStatusText("test1\ntest2");

    Am I restricted to a 2 lines? (1 for each).

    Thanks

    Yes using the statusdlg you are restricted to 1 line for each. However you can use dialog.message instead which can have multiple lines.

    What exactly are you trying to do. I might have a better solution.

    I'm using a custom callback function for File.Copy, which creates a log file and outputs file copy status and other data including:

    file copied
    files remaining
    bytes/total for each file
    bytes/total for all files
    percentage status

    For cosmetic reasons, I was hoping to data on more than 2 lines
