iOS How can I add a CRLF to a label?

[danmwall]

I have a label that is set to wrap to multiple lines. I am setting the text in the code using setText, but it is rather long and I would like to break it up to make it easier to read. Is there a way to insert a carriage return/line feed? For example:

[sampleText setText"This text is pretty long. I would like a CRLF here. See, isn't this easier to read now?"];

Seems like it should be simple enough...

set the number of lines to be shown in label attribute, and then use \n as line breaker.

Duh! Of course! You would think I would have tried that! Thanks, it works like a charm!

Being nit-picky here but, simply for information's sake, using CRLF (\r\n) as a line/section break is limited mostly to ASCII-based comm protocols and Windows. The POSIX world (Mac OS X, Linux, *BSD, etc.) all use just an LF (\n) while Classic Mac OS used CR (\r).
