Add multiline option to STRING in fhutils.getParam

Post by shoshk » 18 Jan 2021 16:05

It would be nice to have the multiline option for STRING fields in fhutils.getParam. That way I wouldn't have to use a separate prompt for multiline input.

Why, Mike? I'll just have to start another thread on the subject of how to use it... Plus if people search for the subject, they'll find something if it's left here.

Ok, I just thought it does not belong in the Wish List Requests.

So what about moving it to Plugin Discussions which is where authors are more likely to look?

What about advice in the Knowledge Base?

I'm hoping the documentation for fhUtils will be updated to include it, which will make advice in the Knowledge Base redundant. Happy for it to be moved to Plugin Discussions if you really feel the need to tidy up.
