In a Textbox, with the property Multiline true, character n does not change line

Question

In a Textbox the character \n does not change line text, example:

textBox1.Multiline = true;
textBox1.Text = "IMPRIMEEMCIMA\nIMPRIMEEMBAIXO";

However \t works. I also noticed that on a label the same text prints the word change but does not print the tab, t. In a Messagebox and a Console application everything works fine.

Answer 1

Use the Environment.NewLine, which returns a specific string from the platform in question:

• "\r n" ( u000D u000A) for Windows
• "\n" ( u000A) for Unix

Example:

textBox1.Text = "IMPRIMEEMCIMA" + Environment.NewLine + "IMPRIMEEMBAIXO";

Answer 2

To break the line in the Textbox you must do \r\n
