EditBox:SetText doesn't show MultiLine correctly

Hello!
I need some help..

I didn't find a way to fix it with a patch.

I have an EditBox (b) in the ScrollFrame (a):

Code:

a = CreateFrame("ScrollFrame", "a", myFRAME, "UIPanelScrollFrameTemplate")

a:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", myFRAME, "TOPLEFT", 20, -80)

a:SetHeight(280)

a:SetWidth(695)



b = CreateFrame("EditBox", "b", a)

b:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", a, "TOPRIGHT", 0, 0)

b:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", a, "TOPLEFT", 0, 0)

b:SetPoint("BOTTOMRIGHT", a, "BOTTOMRIGHT", 0, 0)

b:SetPoint("BOTTOMLEFT", a, "BOTTOMLEFT", 0, 0)

b:SetScript("onescapepressed", function(self) b:ClearFocus() end)

b:SetFont(GameFontNormal:GetFont(), psfontsset[2])

b:SetMultiLine()

b:SetAutoFocus(false)

b:SetHeight(655)

b:SetWidth(695)

b:Show()

b:SetText(" ")



a:SetScrollChild(b)

a:Show()

If I insert Multiline text, example: b:SetText("Test Line 1 tata\r\nTest Line 2 lala")
I see only "Test Line 2 lala".

But if I click Ctrl+A and copy the selected text - there is the first line too. What it can be?

I see only the last line and sometimes not the whole line, just it's end, example:
/script b:SetText("Test Line 1 tdsfsdf dfd data\r\nTest Line 2 > fdsf dfdfsdf lala")
I see: t Line 2 > fdsf dfdfsdf lala

It was changed something for special characters?

Try b:SetMultiLine(true) may be?

Have you tried SetMultiline(true)?

Does b:SetMultiLine(true) fix your problem?

Thank you!

Yes, it was MultiLine... I spent 4 hours to find a problem, I've never passed true before as a parameter, so now I've to check other functions and add "true" eveywhere

Not all methods require an argument. For example, :Show() and :Hide() not take any arguments. Technically you can pass them arguments anyway, but they're just ignored.
