Currently TinyCAD only allows a single line of text to be placed. If you need multiple lines you have to add multiple text elements. I'd like to change this so that you can have a real text box with multiple lines

    This would be a significantly helpful feature.

    Could use <cntrl>+<enter> to force a new line.
    Some other software uses this to get multi-lines.

    Otherwise full edit box edit possibly with bounding box style selection.
    Have to place a rectangle at the moment which doesn't always print WYSIWYG.

    This is one of my favorite features in schematic editors. I will take a serious look at adding this in the next major release.
