You should also be able to use the "newline" character to trigger a linefeed in a string of text. This is "\n" without the quotes.

So:

Now is the time \nFor all good men \nTo come to the aid of his country.

Would be displayed as:

Now is the time
For all good men
To come to the aid of his country.

Edit: This is wrong. The newline character does not work in lcd screens.

Well that's ok because I was wrong. The newline character is not useable within the LCD screen. My mistake.

I didn't realize there was an issue with pressing Enter in an LCD screen. Apparently this was addressed in today's update.

I am getting the same issue in 2018 in version 1.187.206.

It is different although. Even if I don't Alt+Tab, I can't Use Enter or Tab.
It is since today's hotfix, so I hope they realize it soon.
