Multiline text note?

In V5 how do I go about getting a multiline text box on a drawing? When I enter my note into the text box I hit enter thinking I'll go to the next line but V5 thinks I'm done creating the note. I can make multiple lines but I have to type everything in one line and then drag the corner of the text box to change its size. The text does not line up if I do this.

I'm trying to enter a number of assembly notes it seems I'm forced to enter everything in one line or use multiple text boxes.

Any suggestions? V5R18.

Thanks..

Due to numerous complaints, the Text Editor was "fixed" in R18 so the Enter key did the same thing as the OK button - exit the Text Editor.

If you want to jump down to a new line, you have to use Ctrl&Enter now. Shift&Enter will also work.
 
jackk,

Thanks, it works. I tried searching on this issue but came up empty.
