Hi, I am editing text on a layout WIP9 using returns which is not applied.
I have tried creating new text, this is also not applied.
File attached. Many thanks.

Hi, I need to bump this as super frustrating. The text edit is not working correctly with returns and multi lines not being accepted. Exported from V9 to V8 and it works fine.

Hi Martin,
Thats interesting, not sure if there is a setting i am missing. I am still on Sonoma v14 i see too many issues with Sequoia.
I am sure it did used to work when the files were interchangeable, but now they have moved on to a new format. Hopefully some else will try on a Mac and advise.

Also works fine for me in Rhino 8.18 on an M1 Mac running Sonoma.
WIP versions really shouldn’t be used to do serious work.
Morning, I’m still very much in the learning phase, I use other software for most design work but hoping to move to Rhino more (if i can get it to work)
since this seems not to be a bug (on Mac) as no one up the chain has responded, it must be a setting on my machine.
I have just had v8 and v9 open next to each other again to double check, been through all the settings on both machines i can think of and cannot find where to turn on that a carriage return will work the same as in v8.
I have found if i drag the right box edit point i can shorten the box and the text, but the CR still does nothing, like trying to create a blank line between lines as an example. I see it works on Martins PC as above.
v8 works as expected like a word processor, v9 does not on my machine/s. (Intel Mac Pro, M2 Macbook Pro)
Would someone please kindly point me at the local setting so that i can fix this frustrating issue?
Many thanks in advance.
It might just be that it’s still a bug on macOS that’s currently being worked on. “WIP” stands for “work-in-progress”. There often are bugs that are OS specific. One thing working on Windows, doesn’t automatically mean that it works the same on macOS.
As already mentioned above, you should really just use Rhino 8 for doing your work.
The WIP versions are released so that people can try out new features and report bugs that they find, and it seems like you possibly found one.
You’re probably also talking about LF (i.e. Line Feed), not CR (i.e. Carriage Return)?
As I understand it, LF moves the cursor to the beginning of a new line, whereas CR moves it to the beginning of the current line. It’s quite dated typewriter lingo from back in the days.
