editText {wantReturn: true} not working?

[Byron Nash]

I'm trying to use the new {wantReturn: true} property to have multiline edittext boxes in my UI. I can't seem to get it to function. The enter key doesn't line return and any text pasted in comes in as one line.

I'm using this line in the creation of the editText

{multiline:true,wantReturn:true}

4 years later and this still haven't been fixed. I'm experiencing the same problem.

someText = myPanel.add("edittext", undefined, "placeholder", {wantReturn:true});

Neither the enter key nor the numpad enter works!!!

someText = myPanel.add('edittext',undefined,"placeholder", {multiline: true,scrollable: true});
