Is there a way to go to next line?

[Jhon Carlo]

If I have a long  line and I want to go to next line like this:

///////////////

function reportKeyDown(event: KeyboardEvent): void {

  trace("Key Pressed: " + String.fromCharCode(event.charCode) + " (key

code: " + event.keyCode + " character code: " + event.charCode + ")");

//////////

Is there a special char that it is possible to use?

Thanks and Happy New Year!!!

"\n" is the next line character.

"\r" is the carriage return.

Thank you kglad!

I've tried e.g. this:

var MyList: Array = ["123", "456", "789" "\r"

"101112", "131415"];

or

var MyList: Array = ["123", "456", "789" \r

"101112", "131415"];

But doesn't work.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

i'm not sure what you're trying to do, but those of those are problematic.

and this would be ok

var MyList: Array = ["123", "456", "789\r",101112", "131415"];

if you wanted to add a carrage return after "789"

Thank you kglad.

It is my fault I have not explained well.

I'm trying to have, a long script, in a portion of screen without drag the page to see the portion of this script that I can't see.

Do this many times is boring

So I would ask if it is possible to start a new line  without effect to the script.  

Thanks.

you have a textfield onstage that's not displaying all the text?

if so, is the textfield multiline with word-wrap enabled?

[Jhon Carlo]

No I need this in the script window.

[kglad]

i don't understand you.  copy and paste the relevant part of your actionscript and indicate what you want.

if you've already one that with:

function reportKeyDown(event: KeyboardEvent): void {

  trace("Key Pressed: " + String.fromCharCode(event.charCode) + " (key

code: " + event.keyCode + " character code: " + event.charCode + ")");

try:

function reportKeyDown(event: KeyboardEvent): void {

  trace("Key Pressed: " + String.fromCharCode(event.charCode) + "\n(key

code: " + event.keyCode + "\ncharacter code: " + event.charCode + ")");

I'm sorry I misunderstood your suggestion which was right!

Thank you!!
