easy textField question

[riacheslav]

Say I'm updating a textField by adding a new line, a la a chat window. how do I start the added text on a new line?

code:

---

thisTextField.text = (thisTextField.text + /*i want a carriage return here...*/ + newTextLine);

---

basically.

code:

---

thisTextField.text = (thisTextField.text + "\n" + newTextLine);

---

or use the += operator to save some typing:

code:

---

thisTextField.text += "\n" + newTextLine;

---

\n is an escape character which provides a newline.

Great! That does it. Actually I found that "/r" will do the same thing.
Thanks very much.
