kgPanels text scripting

[Xhelius]

It's me again.

Ok I'm trying to get multiple lines of text in 1 panel through a script. Easy enough to get 1 line. self.text:SetText (). What if I wanted 2 lines or 3 lines? Adding more self.text:SetText() aren't displayed. kgPanels only displays the first self.text.SetText(). Any ideas?????

You can use \n to indicate a new line.

print("This is \nsome test \ntext.")

give you...

This is some test text.

Doesn't print send the message to chat?

I'm wanting to seperate the RealZoneName from the SubZoneName and put them on seperate lines. Like

Dalaran
The Eventide

I can get the first line to show but the 2nd line won't.

**EDIT**
There isn't alot of information for text scripting =/
I may just consider trying to write an addon for my purposes that will do this. Doesn't appear any Location addons place the Zone and Subzone on different lines

print() was just an example of how to use \n

Thanks Seerah, I can use print just fine and as long as I'm using just plain text \n works just fine. I was just trying to set something simple si I used:

zone = GetMinimapZoneText()
subzone = GetSubZoneText()
self.text:SetText (Zone)

the above works great. For 1 line. Can't figue out how to add the subzone under it.

**EDIT** OK...self.text:SetText(Zone.."\n"..Subzone) works.

Thanks Seerah !
