I cannot reproduce this here in my tests - can you post an example file for your script that has the user text already set in the block objects?

Block.3dm (48.8 KB) I fixed the text like this: rs.LeaderText(rs.FirstObject(), rs.LeaderText(rs.FirstObject()) I don’t care what you coding gurus have to say about it. To me, this hack looks like quartering a person in one stroke. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not a coding guru, simply trying to figure out how it’s going wrong so a proper bug report can be filed, as I cannot reproduce what is happening when I set a multi-line user text on an object with SetUserText(), retrieve it with GetUserText() and add it to the document with AddText() - it stays mult…

Yeah - I saw the single line initially, somehow, but then it just worked as expected… can’t reproduce, but I also don’t have any idea what I goofed on, if anything, at first, that Asterisk might also be stumbling on… -Pascal

If I explode the block and select the surface, I see this: [image] So the user text is correct (multiline) in the file. If I run the script above, I do get the single line: [image] Now will look into where in the script this happens… So if I put a breakpoint in after getting the user text, i…

[image] Helvetosaur: Not a coding guru I was just jesting, but you are. :wink: [image] pascal: Yeah - I saw the single line initially, somehow, but then it just worked as expected… So those usertexts were applied to objects in R5 initially and surfaces were copy pasted into R6. Maybe …

[image] Asterisk: So those usertexts were applied to objects in R5 initially and surfaces were copy pasted into R6. Ah, that’s definitely another path to check… A bunch of text stuff changed from V5 to V6 and not everything translates 1 to 1… Will try an experiment on my own here… OK, so f…

This is how it was added. Dim Pick, ldrText, Snaps Snaps = Rhino.OsnapMode Rhino.OsnapMode 177 Do Rhino.EnableRedraw True Do Pick = Rhino.GetPoint("Pick detail element to describe",,,, True) If IsNull(Pick) Or IsEmpty(Pick) Then Rhino.OsnapMode Snaps: Exit Sub Loop While IsNull(P…

Wait, I think I can finally reproduce it. Hang on… Yep. @pascal apply a multi-line user text in V5 to an object (doesn’t matter what, a circle will do) copy paste to V6. If you look in the user text properties panel, it still shows multiline But, if run a python script like below, it’s single …

@Helvetosaur - the check is in the mail. Thanks for digging… -Pascal
