To enter multiple lines, make sure "Simple Text" in the text dialog is unchecked. Press Enter in the text field to enter a new line.

Whenever I do it I've got quite unexpected outcome.
If line is broken instead of example text:
This is
new line
I've got:
This is\Pnew line
How to resolve this please?

"Simple Text" with \P becomes multi-line when set to non-simple.
And vice versa.

In rare occasions using the text editor it may all get mixed up.
But nothing as with the question at hand.
If so, there are two paths:
start overnew or wipe the Text entry in Specific Props and type a simple word to restart.
