Newline in strings.properties

[karthiknalfresc]

Hi,
I was trying to add newline character(\n) in strings.properties. It looks like Alfresco ignores the new line.
For eg, my strings.properties looks something like

 projectUrl = Project URL \n E.g [some http URL]
‍‍‍

Alfresco renders the above property as

Project URL E.g [some http URL]‍

ignoring the newline character.
I also tried \r and alfresco seems to ignore it too.

If you have got the linebreak to work,can you please help. Thank you.

Thanks
Karthik

I suspect it's more likely that HTML is ignoring your line breaks. Try <br> instead if this string is being displayed in an HTML environment.

Thank you for the reply.
Sorry, i guess i wasnt clear. I was referring to strings.properties in the webform. I am using annotations[alf:label] in my xsd and i define the labels/values in strings.properties. I've added newline character \n in one of the values in strings.properties file.
When i  click create content on the webform, alfresco displays the form to input. It is here that Alfresco ignores the newline character while displaying the values in strings.properties.
I also tried doing the <br/> and it doesnt seem to work.  Thanks for your help.
